AUDITOR GENERAJL'S
REPORT
FOE THE YEAR ENDED 30th JUNE, 1879.
The undersigned has the honor to transmit the appropriation accounts for 1878-9,.
and those of a statutory nature belonging to the same period which were transferred
to him for audit.
The Audit Act was put in force on the 1st of August, 1878.
The financial business of the year 1878-9 was therefore begun under the old
system.
It will be observed that the law under which these accounts were examined
defines the functions of the Finance department and of the Auditor-General's office,
and demands an entirely different mode of making payments of public money, and
of examining disbursements of it, from what had previously existed. The office, as
it is now necessary that it should be, could not be built up to as great an extent as
might be supposed from the materials which existed in the department of the late
Auditor-General.
When the same person was Auditor-General and Deputy Minister of Finance,,
the duties of the latter position were from the nature of the case first performed.
Even of Mr. Langton's energy and intellect little could be spared to the work of his
second office.
Five of those who belonged to the Audit branch of the Finance department
were transferred to the Audit office, and on the experience which was gained by
them during such portion of their time as could be withdrawn from the duties ©f the
Finance Department, reliance could alone be placed at the beginning of the work of
the new office. Those who composed the rest of the staff belonged formerly to the
department of the Receiver-General.
5 a — b
Several additions to, and changes in the staff have taken place, and it is bolieved
that these, with the experience gained by all, have improved the character of the
office.
The undersigned, in reflecting on the many imperfections of these accounts so
far as the work of this office in connection with them goes, draws some comfort
from the following quotation from the report of the English Public Monies Com,
mitteo, 1870, page iii, section 2. "The year 1868-9 being the first year in which
the requirements of ' The Exchequer and Audit Department Act, 1866' have in this
respect been entirely complied with, may be considered as marking the commencement
of a new era in our financial history."
Now, when it is recollected that, although under commissioners, there was a
system of audit in existence for a very long period in England, and a staff ready to
go to work under the improved system, the relative disadvantages under which the
Canadian Act was put in force will be perceived, and the Audit office staff, it is be-
lieved, will be admitted to have shewn a reasonable amount of industry and capacity
in doing what has already been accomplished.
The Audit Act having been based upon that of the Imperial Parliament now in
force, the undersigned has assumed that so far as the circumstances permit, it is
advisable in such contingencies as are not provided for by our statute to follow the
system which has grown up under the English Act.
The details of estimates as furnished to Parliament have therefore, where
the vote has not been less than the sum asked, been considered binding upon the
department to the extent that reasons for a material difference between the amount
of each sub-head of appropriation Jand the expenditure under it should be given, and
that the reasons should be based upon facts which were not foreseen when the esti
mates were submitted.
The appropriation accounts are made use of to provide Parliament with explan-
ations of causes which led to expenditure different from what was anticipated when
Parliament was asked to make the appropriation. The explanations, on manifest
grounds, are printed as they are received from the accounting department, and extend
to the case of an expenditure less than the corresponding sub-head of appropriates, as
well as that of an expenditure greater than its sub-head. For the purposes described
immediately above it is suggested that the sub-divisions of the estimates and the
numbers of the votes be retained in the Supply Bill.
Some difficulty has occurred with reference to the accounts submitted herewith
when the vote has been less than the estimate — there being sub-divisions — on account
of the impossibility of determining, by comparing only the estimates and Supply Bill,
on which sub-division the deduction has been made when the sub-divisions are
XI
omitted from the Bill. The supplementary estimates should have the same sub-
divisions as those which are in the estimates to which they are supplementary.
E. g. In the main estimate for working the Intercolonial and Prince Edward
Island .Railways for 1878-9, the gross amount. $1,800,000, is divided into
Locomotive power $560,000
Car expenses 308,000
Station and train expenses 220,000
General charges 132,000
Renewals, repairs and relaying steel rails 580,000
while the supplementary estimates of the session of 1879 contain
For working expenses of Intercolonial Eailway $200,000
do do Prince Edward Island Railway. 20,000
without other sub-division.
In this case application was made to the Department of Railways for a sub-
division, and that which was given was accepted. By voting the amount without a
sub-division, it appears logical to suppose that the accounting department was
empowered to use it in such proportions, for the different sub-services, as might be
found expedient. The different sub-divisions should be clearly defined, so that
doubt of the one to which any item of expenditure should be charged might arise as
seldom as possible.
No appropriation should be so indefinite in description as to permit'any portion
of it being used to supplement any other appropriation.
A uniform practice on these points, and a settled principle as to the amount ot
latitude which is to be given to the spending department, by making the sub-heads
few and the votes many, or the sub-heads many and the votes few, would permit of
the establishment of well defined modes of furnishing the details of the Public Accounts
and compiling the Appropriation Accounts.
An illustration of the first point, in which a change seems desirable, is afforded
by the appropriations for immigration.
The vote of $110,000 " towards assisting immigration and immigration expenses,
including estimated expenses of transport of Mennonites," can be used to supplement
any or all of the sub-heads of the other vote.
If, for instance, $100,000 were spent on the first sub-head of vote 60, " salaries of
agents, etc.," objection could not be made that the expenditure was different from that
which Parliament had intended.
For the second point. — The anticipated expenditures on all the different ports in
the Dominion are given separately in the Customs' estimates, while the Post Oilice
5 a — bJ
xu
Depart men t gives no further details than the chief sub-divisions of supposed expen se-
by Provinces.
The following votes are found to be considered, by those who have the spending
of them, as grants, viz. : —
The Geological Survey $50,000
Meteorological Observatory 37,000
St. Catharines do 500
Kingston do 500
Marine Hospital, Quebec, etc 20,000
It might be well to have it clearly defined by Parli ament when the amount is
intended as a grant, as well as when the spending department is expected to have
the right to use any portion of its receipts. Where expenditure has been made from
money advanced and not through letters of credit, the accountant making the
disbuisements has been called upon to deposit to the credit of the Keceiver-G-eneral
the amount unexpended at the end of the year. Correspondence in connection with
cases of the kind is given in the body of the accounts. Where the expenditure has
taken place under the letter of credit system the letter of credit is cancelled, there
being no money in the hands of the accountant.
The undersigned now takes the liberty of approaching a subject which is perhaps
beyond his province, but which is in his opinion so great a factor in the correct
account keeping of Dominion expenditure, that he is emboldened to refer to it. It is
with reference to the time when the financial year should end. The writer is of
opinion that the most convenient time would be during the Session of Parliament, and
offers the following reasons in support of his views : —
1st. As the year now terminates, it is necessary during the Session of Parliament
to make supplementary provision for the large expenditure on capital account, which
is to be made during April, May and June of the current year ; and for that of the
subsequent year, which will be made in July, August, September and October, and
for that which can be anticipated for April, May and June. The same facts hold
with reference the charges on income, although to a smaller extent.
If the financial year were closed during the Session of Parliament, no appropria-
tion could lapse without there being the means of obtaining a revote of the amount,
if Parliament were still willing that the expenditure should be made, and provision
would have to be made for only twelve months instead of fifteen.
2nd. A difficulty like this frequently arises. A sum of money is voted for the
completion of a particular work. At tho end of the year the balance of the
appropriation, which would otherwise lapse, is rendered available by Order in Council,
under 41st Vic, cap. ?, sec. 36, until the 30th September following. The Engineer
xni
or Architect of the Public Works Department cannot certify to the correctness of the
amount claimed. An arbitration takes place and is not concluded until after the 30th
September, when the appropriation has lapsed.
It has been suggested to the undersigned, that on the 30th September the difficulty
might be gotfover by permitting the Department to draw out the money and place it to
its own creditor to that of the Minister of Finance. This of course would evade
the intention of Parliament, and would be more objectionable than to directly dis-
regard its directions. The undesirable delay in paying the public creditor, resulting
from the above cause, would evidently not exist were the financial year to end at the
time suggested.
The Audit Act legalizes the use of a Governor General's Warrant when there is no
appropriation, but it seems to be intended that a Governor General's Warrant
should only issue in the case of an emergency, and not to restore an appropriation
which bas lapsed.
If the normal meeting of Parliament were to take place early in February,
and the Session to last three months, the fixing of the end of the year at
that of the English year, the 31st of March, would be, in every way the undersigned
can think of, the most convenient.
The bringing down of the balance of the appropriation for three months, if it is
supposed to lengthen the financial year to fifteen months, and the words of the
statute appear to bear that construction alone, renders it impossible to have the accounts
prepared for the subsequent session. If it is legal to cause the expenditure under
the Parliamentary appropriation, brought down by Order in Council, to be part of
that of the year to which it has been brought down, then two appropriations must be
watched, and appropriation accounts for each should be rendered — those belonging
to the period ending on the 30th September, and those belonging to the whole year.
There is no doubt but that the adoption of the change suggested would necessi-
ate the granting of a vote of credit for the period between the end of March and the
end of the session, as the Government could not be in a position before the 31st of
March to determine all the spending power required for the approaching financial
year. For the reasons above given the undersigned ventures to give his views on the
matter.
It has been customary hitherto to make the expenditure of the year cover, to as
great an extent as possible, the liabil ities of the year, and for that purpose payments
made long after the close of the year have been included in the accounts of the year
The words of the Audit Act, section 36, clearly enough point out that the accounts
of the year should comprise the payments of the year, and although this rule has
.not been closely adhered to, with reference to the accounts herewith submitted, th&
XIV
deviations were made before it whs fully felt how important it is, apart from the legal
aspoct of the case, to make the accounts of the year include exnctiy the payment* or
the year without any reference to the time when the liabilities were incurred.
Owing to tho late Auditor-General having been also Deputy Minister of Finance,
there has been some inconvenience in the different departments and with account-
ants, through their not knowing the duties which, under the new system, devolved
upon the Finance department, and those which should be performed in the Audit
office. The inconvenience is, however, only of a temporary character, and will be-
come less and less, as those who have frequent occasion to refer to one or other de-
partment will soon learn to determine the principles which underlie the working of
the two offices.
The undersigned, shortly after entering upon his duties, addressed a circular
of which the|following is a copy, to the different departments and individuals en.
trusted with the expenditure of public money :
Audit Office,
(Copy.) Ottawa, 21st August, 1878.
Sir, — I have to call your attention to the following sections of chapter 7, of last
session, viz.: 30, 33, 37, 40 and 41, which apply more particularly to your connection
urith this office.
You will observe that by section 30, besides the statement for the Minister of
Finance of monies drawn under credits, a similar statement is to be made for me.
With each monthly statement you will send to me the cheques which have come
in from the banks.
Section 33 requires that I obtain from you the substance of all contracts.
There seems no ground for difference of opinion with reference to the other
sections.
I have the honor to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
(Signed) J. L. McDOUGALL,
Auditor-General.
The following communication was received from the Accountant of the House*
of Commons :
(Copy.)
House of Commons,
Ottawa, 29th August, 1878.
Sir, — In answer to your circular of the 21st instant, I would draw your attention*
to the 4th clause of 31 Vic, cap. 27, which provides that all sums of money voted by
Parliament for contingencies or under the Members' Indemnity Act shall be paid
over to and held by the Minister of Finance, subject to the Order of the Commissioners
for the Internal Economy of the House of Commons, and shall be paid to them or their
order from time to time in such sums as they may deem requisite. {Please observe r
these sums are not paid to me by the Minister of Finance, but to the Commissioners.}
Bee. 5 provides that the sums above-mentioned shall be paid according to the directions.
of the Commissioners, and the Speaker shall appoint an officer for that purpose, to be
called the Accountant of the House of Commons, and the Commissioners shall pay-
such sums as they shall deem necessary to the credit of the said Accountant by an
order signed by the Speaker and two of the said Commissioners.
It appears to me, if your circular is to apply to the House of Commons, the
functions and duties uf the Commissioners will be greatly infringed upon, and as it
would be highly improper for me to do any act which would conduce to that end, I
would therefore submit that any action in this matter should be suspended till the
re-assembling of the Commissioners at the seat of Government, when the subject may
be brought before them, and I may receive their instructions.
I would also refer you to the 6th clause of the same Act, which provides for th&
disposal of the sums voted by Parliament for the printing of Parliament, and how
they are to be accounted for. I would submit that in this case, also, action should be
•uspended till the meeting of Parliament, when the Joint Committee on Printing can
issue such instructions as they may deem necessary.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
(Signed) HENEY HAETNEY,
Accountant House of Commons and Clerk of the Joint
Committee of the Houses on Printing.

August 30th, 1879.
Sir, — I have your favour of yesterday.
I believe that you misunderstood the object I had in view when the circular was-
•ent. There is no expectation, on my part, of the authority of the Commissioners
being dispensed with.
The warrant to pay over the money to the Commissioners from the Eoceiver-
General's balance, and the authority to expend the sums in detail, must continue as
at present. This is, however, in my opinion, no reason for objecting to the-
subsequent audit, which would not do away with the examination by any Committee-
of the House of Commons.
Your obedient servant,
(Signed) J. L. McDOUGALL,

Hbnrt Hartney, Esq.,
Accountaat of House of Commons,
&c, &c, &c.
House of Commons, 2nd September, 1875.
My D ear Mr. Hartney, — Having perused the circular of the Auditor-General —
referred t o in your note to me — the Audit Act of last session, and more especially
sections 3 0, 33, 37, 40 and 41, your answer and the subsequent note of the Auditor
General in reply. I am of opinion that the accounting clauses of the Audit Act
were not intended to apply, and do not apply, to moneys voted for the purposes of
the House of Commons or for the printing of Parliament, under the provisions of the
Internal Economy Act, 31 Vic, c. 27, but that such moneys must continue to bo
XVI
dealt with, exponded and accounted for under that Act alone, and that the duty of
the Auditor-General with respect to the samo will bo fully discharged by his taking
care that no more money is advanced under the said Act than is voted by Parliament
for the purpose. The Houses of Parliament are not departments of the Government
or under its control, nor has either of them a ministerial and deputy head to perform
the duties mentioned in the sections referred to by the Auditor-General. The
Internal Economy Act is not mentioned or referred to in the Audit Act, ag it would
have been expressly if I had understood that it was intended to repeal or affect it.
It certainly was never so understood by me or explained to me. It appears to me
that the Internal Economy Act contains all the provisions requisite for ensuring
perfectly satisfactory accountability to the House of Commons and Joint Committee
for Printing, and that it could not have been intended that the Auditor-General
should re-audit accounts audited under the said Act, and over which neither he nor
the Government can exercise any control except (as I have before mentioned) that
the sums advanced shall not in the whole exceed the sums voted by Parliament under
the said Act, and any re-audit or examination of the accounts of the expenditure of
such sums after thoy have been examined and approved by the Commissioners and
Committee seems not only unnecessary, but might probably be considered as a trespass
upon their powers and privileges.
Very truly yours,
(Signed.) G. W. WICKSTEED,
H. Hartney, Esq.,
Accountant under 31 Vic, cap. 27.
Law Clerk, House of Commons.
The amounts asked for by the Accountant of the Commons, and by the Clerk
of the Senate, were placed at their disposal by cheques on the Eeceiver-GeneraFs
account.
This was altered at the beginning 1 -579-80, and letters of credit substituted.
The only examination given to the expenditure is by the ^Internal Economy
Commission in the Commons, and by the Contingent Committee of the Senate, which
bodies may be assumed to take the places of the Public Accounts Committe with
reference to other expenditure, that is to review general principles, but not to take up
details. The objections to the Audit Office examination of the expenditure in the
Senate and Commons, cannot be any more cogent here than they are with reference
to the expenditure in the Imperial Houses.
Formerly certain disbursements for salaries in the House of Lords were paid
from the fees, and no estimates were submitted to Parliament. This however was
changed, with the approbation of the Lords ; and as soon as an appropriation was
made for the salaries, the expenditure under it went, as a matter of course, before the
Comptroller and Auditor-General for audit, as will be seen from the following ox-
tract : —
tl In consequence of the salaries and expenses of the establishment of the House
" of Lords being (in accordance with their Report) voted by the House of Commons
" as an item of Supply, it at once became an appropriation account, and passed under
xvn
-" the operation of Sections 21 to 32 and Schedule A., item 3, of the Exchequer and
" Audit Departments Act — cap. 39 of 29 and30 Vic.
The undersigned can see no reason for our legislation expenditure being treated
differently from theirs. If it is a prudent thing to have the expenditure of all other
accountants audited, is there anything in the nature of the expenditure in the Com-
mons or Senate which makes the same course there unnecessary ? Wben it is under-
stood that the Auditor-General, in auditing the accounts for legislation, would act as
the agent of Parliament to see that its intentions were observed, there appears
to be no ground for an objection to the examination, but the strongest reasons for it*
On reference to the Audit Act, section 48, the different duties which may be
assigned to the Auditor-General by the Minister of Finance, in addition to those
which are made compulsory by the Act, will be found. The undersigned has not
been directed to undertake any of them.
The following are letters to the Hon. the Treasury Board, and replies to the
same : —
Extract from the minutes of a meeting of the Treasury Board, held at Ottawa, on the
2nd day of October, 1878.
Three memoranda, numbered respectively 3, 5 and 6, and relating respectively
to the mode of issuing letters of credit, the various books kept in the Auditor -General's
office, and expenses of elections, were submitted by the Auditor-General, and approved
by the Board.

The Auditor-General,
Extract from the minutes of a meeting of the Treasury Board, held at Ottawa, on the U£
day of October, 1878.
Circulars issued by the Auditor-General, and numbered 1 and 2, together with a
memorandum on the payments on Money Order Account and Transfers from one
Bank to another, were examined and approved by the Board, upon the understanding
that the latter had also been approved by the Post Office Department.
W. REGINALD BAKER,
For the Secretary.
The Auditor-General.
Payments on Money Order account and Transfers from one bank to another.
The undersigned has the honor to submit for the consideration of the honorable
the Treasury Board, the following modes of doing away with the inconvenience of
having a method of issuing cheques for Money Order payments different from that
employed when a sum on appropriation account is to be paid.
1st. The Money Order receipts might bo deposited to a separate, differently-
headed account from that to which the amounts really belonging to the Receiver
xvin
General arc placed, and the presont manner of ordering disbursements would then'
continue.
2nd. The deposits might still be made as they now are, and the undersigned be
empowered to unite with the Deputy Minister of Finance in making the cheques for
Money Order payments, the power not being inconsistent with the Audit Act of last
Session, but additional to anything there given.
The undersigned begs to recommend the latter method as it would simplify our
dealings with the banks, and because the transfers might be conducted in the same
manner and by the same authority.
If the above recommondation be carried out, the undersigned would not be
responsible for the accuracy of the amounts stated by the Chief Superintendent of the
Money Order branch of the Post Office Department as due to a bank, but only for
the sum paid to the bank, being that which the Chief Superintendent has ordered to
be paid.
J. L. McDOUGALL,
Auditor General.
Audit Office,
September 25th, 1878.
The undersigned has the honor to submit in accordance with 41st Vic, chap. 7.
Section 15, for the approval of the Honorable the Treasury Board, the accompanying
circulars Nos. 1 and 2.
J. L. McDOUGALL,
Auditor General.
Audit Office,
September 19th, 1878.
Audit Office,
September 10th, 1878.
Sir, — Without any reference at present to the accounts of last year, I have the
honor to draw your attention to the appropriation expenditure of the current year,
and to request that you will forward to me all accounts under your supervision that
are ready. In sending your accounts I beg that you will cause the following to be
observed by your officers.
1st. Accounts should be made up as soon after the close of each month as practi-
cable and should be sent to this office not later than a month after the end of the
period covered by the accounts. E.g : July accounts should be in my hands by the 1st
•f September; August by the 1st of October and so on.
2nd. In making up the periodical statements strict attention should be paid to
the mode in which the appropriations have been granted by Parliament, the appro-
priations being the starting points in making up the statements. E.g: Mail Service
(Grand Trunk), $175,000; 1878, Aug. 1st, paid on account $10,000; balance $165,000.
By following this plan the audit will be expeditiously accomplished, and I have
no doubt that the several departments of the Service will find it satisfactory.
3rd. Each monthly account should be headed with the full amount of the several
appropriations and the unexpended balances brought from the previous monthly
statements.
4th. Each monthly account should be accompanied by the bills, vouchers, cheques

The undersigned has the honor to submit to the Honorable the Treasury Board
that, in his opinion, the payments which are now made by Mr. J. W. Harper, the-
paymaster of the Public Works Department, should be made under the letter of
credit system.
The course now taken by the Department of Public Works, in supplying Mr.
Harper with the means of paying accounts, has the objectionable feature of putting
large sums of money to a private account, without giving any advantage in the way
of required facility of payment which would not be afforded by letters ot credit.
The cheques drawn against letters of credit should be signed by the deputy head
and the accountant.
An early audit at regular intervals of time, after payment, should be made. ^ It
would be much more effective in checking irregularities than the greatest attention
before payment, necessarily without vouchers, can be.
J. L. McDOUGALL,
Auditor General.
Audit Office,
4th October, 1878.
Mr. Courtney's memorandum of the 24th June, 1818, of which the following is a
copy, goes fully into the matter and gives important information.
Memorandum on the payment of the Petty Accounts of the Public Works Department.
The Bank of Montreal have, within the last few days, sent to this Department a
statement showing the balances of the several Government accounts to the 15th inst.
Similar statements are sent twice a month. On examination of this statement I find
included the Department of Public Works Warrant Account. I could get no infor-
mation respecting this account in the Finance Department, and I had to make en-
quiries of Mr. Drummond- From him I learned that the account was the drawing
account of Mr. Harper, the paymaster of the Department; that its balance to-day is
at credit of about $1,700; that it had been overdrawn, but had been covered through
the deposit of a warrant for $5,500 odd. I cannot find that the cheques of Mr.
Harper were ever submitted to the Auditor General.
I then inquired of Mr. McNicol, the Clerk in the Finance Department to whom
were submitted for audit the last three consecutive quarters' accounts received from
the Public Works Department. He told me that the aggregate of the payments en-
tered in the appropriation ledger was represented by receipted paylists and bills;
that schedules accompanied the vouchers; that these schedules, drawn up in Mr.
.Baine's office, showed that the accounts were either paid by warrants or cheques.
Mr. McNicol told mo that he verified the payments by warrants, but that as no
cheques had ever been sent to the Department he did not trouble himself about them.
x :
It will bo rocolloctod that in making up the Civil Government Expenditure last
year (1876-77) it was found that Mr. Ross had made no payments for the petty con-
tingencies of the Public Works Department, and on examination it was discovered
that Mr. Harper had paid these petty contingencies for two years and had made no
application for a refund. (See the Public Accounts of 1874-75.) In the Civil Gov-
ernment Contingencies there is an amount of over $700 paid to Mr. Harper, being
petty contingencies paid by him for two years and four months.
The total amount of cash passing through Mr. Harper's hands during the year is
about $300,000.
I do not wish for one moment to let it be supposed that I have the slightest
suspicion of Mr. Harper. I believe him to be scrupulously honest, but at the same
time I think the system under which'he is at present working is bad t and ought to
be changed.
I propose that the present year's accounts be wound up as speedily as possible,
and that, if after the 1st proximo any payments are to be made for the present year's
service, the present account shall be used and allowed to be gradually wound up.
From the 1st proximo and for the services of the year 1878-79, and for future
years, I propose that Mr. Harper be placed under the credit system, i.e.,a credit for say
$15,000 should be opened at the Bank of Montreal; that the cheques (consecutively
numbered and marked " Drawn against Credit Account") should be debited to this
account; that fortnightly schedules should be made out of all cheques drawn against
these credits, and these schedules and the cheques paid and the charge sheet should
be rendered at present to the Finance Department, and subsequently, as directed by
Sec. 30 of the Audit Act, in the way therein provided. The Bank would then be
recouped for cheques drawn. I am not certain but that it would be better if the
cheques were countersigned by the Accountant for the Deputy Minister of Public
Works, but that would be for the Department to settle.

The undersigned has the honor to submit to the Honourable the Trseasury Board,
that in his opinion the 30th Section of the Audit Act requires a uniform mode of
issuing letters of credit for expenditure in all the Provinces.
The substitution of the form now used when payments are to be made in Ontario
and Quebec for that which has continued to exist in authorizing expenditure for the
outlying Provinces would secure the double advantage of the control over all disburse-
ments which was contemplated by Parliament and of having one general system.

The undersigned has the honor to submit to the Honorable the Treasury Board,
that the following books are used in his office : —
An Appropriation book in which all payments on account of appropriations are
entered against the several headings to which they belong :
A Letter of Credit book in which all credits for Ontario and Quebec are enteied 1 :
A book in which all the receipts of the Dominion, under their different head-
ings, are entered as they occur, and are subsequently recapitulated by months and
Provinces.
XX11
A register in which all accounts and documents, as thoy come in, are entered,
and the times when they are given to, and returned by tho Examiners are noted.
iSooks for each Examiner in which tho appropriation statements of the different
accountants are entered with all the remarks which tho examination has called forth
with regard to the various items, whether as to a doubt of the connection with the
appropriation, the insufficiency of the departmental authority, the want of evidence
of payment or any other apparent defect.
In the Examiner's books, the explanations of the accountants in reply to queries
are also noted .

1st October, 1878.
Much time was expended, shortly after the inauguration of the Audit system
in the examination of the election accounts. The late Hon. John Simnson,
Assistant Auditor, who had taken exclusive charge of the examination of election
accounts, died a few days after the general election, and the undersigned was
obliged to put a large part of the Audit staff to the work of examining and disposing
-of the accounts without their having had any previous training.
It was therefore late in the financial year, indeed about the end of March, before
anything like a fair beginning could be made in the audit of the ordinary expendi-
ture of the Government. There are appended letters written to the Treasury Board
with reference to expenditure made of Canadian moneys in the hands of English
bankers.

Ottawa, 8th December, 1879.
Sir, — I have the honour to draw attention to Sec. 22 of the Audit Act, and to
state that, although the Dominion Notes are being regularly cancelled, I have not
received any intimation of the receipt of the other securities mentioned in that
section.
I should like to receive as long notice as you can give of the time when you will
be prepared to have the necessary assistance from your Department given to the
work of cancellation of tho other securities, so that I may be able to put a person to
the work with as little derangement of the general duties of the office as possible.

Ottawa, 12th December, 1879.
Sir, — I am in receipt of your letter of the 8th instant, on the subject of the
•destruction and cancellation of matured securities ; and in reply thereto, I have to
state that, on my assumption of office, I found that the marking off of coupons and
matured debt belonged to the old Receiver-General's Department, and that, for some
XXlll
time previous, the Financial Agents in England had not forwarded the coupons and
bonds. I have since however received several boxes, which are in process and are
nearly written off, and as soon as the present press of work is over, I trust to hand
them at once over to you. Of course I will take good care to give you early notice
-of tha same.
Your obedient servant,
J. M. COUKTNEY,
Deputy Minister of Finance.
'The Auditor-General.
With reference to a large proportion of the expenditure made in England, there
is no doubt of the legality of the exact payments ; that is, for the maturing deben-
tures, the instalments of interest, commission for management, &c. The payments
on appropriation account, although not large dur.ng 1878-79, and the expired por-
tion of 1879-80 (so far as the facts are known to the undersigned,) are made against
the provisions of the Audit Act. The payments are made without any reference to
the undersigned. As, however, it is nowhere laid down as a part of the duty of the
Auditor General to notify the Agents of the Government, and even Canadian bankers
holding Government moneys, of the restrictions of the Audit Act in making disburse-
ments on Government account, and as such notice might lead to inconvenience, the
undersigned has taken no further action in the matter than drawing the attention
of the Government to the subject as above set forth.
The following letter was addressed to the Deputy Minister of Justice : —
Audit Office, 2nd May, 1879.
Sir, — Please give your opinion on the accompanying correspondence between
the Deputy Minister of Finance] and myself, so far as the case of Mr. Dixon goes,
and return the letters to me.
I have the honor to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
(Signed) J. L. McDOUGALL,
Z. A. Lash, Esq.,
Deputy Minister of Justice.
To which was received the following reply : —
Auditor General.
Ottawa, June 10th, 1879.
Sir, — The question submitted by you as to the payment of the increase allowed
to Mr. Dixon, a clerk in tho Public Works Department, raises a very important
question as to your duties and responsibilities as Auditor General.
The broad^question is, whether you should, or indeed whether you have the
right to enquire into the right of the Government to pass an Order in Council
authorizing the expenditure of public money, or whether your duty and power as
Auditor General is limited merely to seeing that any moneys, the expenditure of
which has been authorized by Order in Council, or departmentally, according to cir-
cumstances, have been voted by Parliament to be used for the purpose intended.
XXIV
I have given tho mutter very careful consideration, and am satisfied that your
duties and powers as Auditor-General are confined to seeing that any moneys which
tho Government seok to expond have been voted to Her Majesty for the purpose, and
that you have no right to enquire into the legal right of the Government to do that
for which they seek to expond tho money which has been voted to them by Parlia-
ment.
Tho question is one of principle, and not of degree. If you have a right
to enquire into the legal right of the Government to do something which may
appear to you to bo clearly beyond their powers as a Government, then
you would have an equal right, and it would be your duty, to enquire into the
validity, in a legal point of view, of every act done by the Government involving the
expenditure of money.
It is out of tho question that any such responsibility should be cast upon you.
Parliament never intended to make you the judge in the first instance of the validity
of all the executive acts of the Crown. It must be remembered that the Government
is responsible to Parliament and to the people for their acts. It is for them to satisfy
Parliament and the people that they did not exceed their authority, or to justify any
excess of authority on their part, and when necessary to ask Parliament to confirm
their actions. Once it were admitted that the Government had to satisfy the Auditor-
General, or any other person outside of Parliament, as to tho legal validity of any
proposed action on their part before such action could be taken, it is not difficult to
imagine that the consequences might be disastrous.
A reference to the provisions of the Act under which you hold office, shows, I
think, that your duties and powers are confined to those I have mentioned.
The 11th section authorizes tbe appointment of the Auditor-General " for the
more complete examination of the public accounts of* the Dominion, and for tbe report-
ing thereon to the House of Commons," and the 31st section makes it the duty of the
Auditor-General to see that no cheque issues for the payment of any public money
for which there is no direct Parliamentary appropriation, or in excess of any portion
of such appropriation, the expenditure of which has been authorized by the Governor
in Council.
The 32nd section provides that no cheque for public money 'shall issue, except
upon the certificate of the Auditor-General that there is Parliamentary authority for
the expenditure, save only in specified cases.
The Parliamentary authority referred to in the 32nd Section, means, I think,,
the same as Parliamentary appropriation mentioned in the 31st Section, otherwise
nothing could be done by the Government involving the expenditure of public money
unless the act sought to be done was authorized by a Statute. It is needless to say
that there are very many things which the Crown can do, and which involve the
expenditure of money, the doing of which depends upon the common law powers of
the Crown and not upon statute.
I think, therefore, that if you find that moneys have been voted applicable to a-
certain purpose, and if the Government authorize the expenditure of such money for
a purpose coming within that for which they were voted, it is your duty to authorize
the issue of the necessary cheque.
It is not necessary for me to express any opinion upon the effect of the Canada
Civil Service Act, 1868, and amendments, upon the general powers possessed by the
Crown with respect to the employment of servants and agents. The general ri^ht
of the Crown to employ servants is certainly not conferred by Statute. It always
existed at Common Law.
I need not say that the Government should regard the provisions of Statutes
and follow their directions.
Some Statutes are imperative and limit the powers of those acting under them,,
so that an Act done contrary to their provisions would be void. Other Statutes are
directory only, non-compliance with which does not affect the legal validity of what
may be done. It may be that the Civil Service Act is one of the latter class.
Unless it be so, from all I can learn, a large number of servants who have been, and
XXV
who now are, in the employ of the Crown, have no rights, and all acts which have
been done by them in pursuance of their supposed powers, as servants of the Crown,
are void. It is unnecessary to remark that such a conclusion would be startling.
I suppose that you have hitherto been under the impression that your duties and
responsibilities were greater than they are, and I feel sure you will be glad to learn
that they are defined within the limits above explained.
I am, Sir,
Your obedient Servant,
(Signed) Z. A. LASH,
D. M. J.
I concur in this opinion.
(Signed) Jas. McDonald,
Minister of Justice.
No reply has been sent to this letter, as it appeared that it could be better dealt
with here. Whether for the purpose of preventing irregularities in making pay-
ments, or of reporting them to Parliament, if they have occurred in the disbursement
of accountable moneys, it is the duty of the undersigned to be fully informed as to all
the brakes which have been put by Parliament or the Government on the expendi-
ture of the public funds. The undersigned should possess more information on such
subjects than any other official. That information should, no doubt, be used in re-
porting infringements of the rules laid down by Parliament, if the rules have been
broken ; but it seems more in the public interest that the Auditor-General of the
time being should do what he can to prevent the illegality, than that he should take
part in making payments contrary to Acts of Parliament without drawing the
attention of those who have ordered the illegal payments, and who would not have
done so had their attention been drawn to the legal or other sound objection.
The undersigned cannot think of anything more desirable in payments and
account-keeping than uniformity. He believes that when an Act of Parliament
establishing certain limits to payments, or an Order in Council of a general nature
with the same object has been passed, great good will arise from there being a person
who can point, and who is expected to point, out when the provisions of either are
about being disregarded, not w.th the object of hindering the Government from
carrying out its wishes, but with a view of securing that uniformity which the
Government itself has determined upon when passing the general Order in Council
or submitting the bill to Parliament. It is plain that the "attempt to control, against
the will of the Government, their expenditure while within the Parliamentary grants?
through a single person, the inferior of each of the members of the Cabinet in rank,
would be out of tne question — would, indeed, be as useless to the couutry as it would
be unpleasant to the officer.
Assuming, however, that the Government is disposed to carry out the wishes of
the people, as shewn by the acts of their representatives, the Auditor General must
report some points on which he does not agree with tho Executive, but the greater
XXVI
part ofthe good which he will accomplish will result from the prevention of irregulari-
ties by timely drawing attention to points which must be reported on adversely, if
allowed to pass in the first instance.
There was qo parliamentary audit until the passage of the Audit Act, and, as
might naturally bo expected, the undersigned has not brought the auditing of the
accounts of the whole Dominion to perfection. He has not laid bare great wrong-
doings in this report. He hopes that they have not existed. It did not appear to
bo the primo duty of the Auditor-General to detect wrongs committed, but to
establish a system which would render the possible losses the smallest.
Wherever it was necessary to put the control of a considerable sum of money in
the hands of an accountant, it has been done by giving him a credit, where that has
been rendered possible by there being a bank in the neighbourhood.
The advantages which result from adopting the letter of credit system in
preference to that of cheques are those : —1st, the money remains at the credit of
the Receiver-General, and is thus available for other purposes until it is required
to repay the public creditor ; 2nd, as the cheques drawn against the credit are the
property of the Government after payment, they can always be examined, and no
part of the money entrusted to the accountant can be diverted to the private use of
the accountant, even temporarily, without the means of detecting the irregularity
being at hand.
The undersigned has the honor to request that instructions may be given to
him enlarging upon the meaning of the term " countersigned " as used in Section 35
of the Audit Act. It does not seem to express what duties are to be performed by
the Auditor-General in connection with the Public Accounts previous to his counter-
signature being attached; nor are there any directions as to the persons who are to
transmit the accounts to him, or the time when they are to be transmitted.
The undersigned while exercising the necessarily novel functions of a newly-
created office, has in all probability, in some instances, either exceeded or fallen short
ofthe powers granted him by Parliament. He trusts that any points on which he
should receive directions from the Public Accounts Committee will be early taken
up.

Sir, — I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 6th
instant, requesting information as to the cause of variance between the expenditure in
connection with Charges of Management and the sum appropriated, by Parliament
ior that service ; and in reply thereto I beg to state that, although details are placed
in the estimates of sums likely to be required for the several services, yet, Parlia-
ment grants the amounts en bloc ; and that I find, on examination, the total appro-
priation is not exceeded. I will, however, endeavour, in the estimates to be placed
before Parliament during the next session, to provide sufficient to cover expenditure
ior each sub-head.
Your obedient servant,
J. M. COUKTNEY,

The above letter of the Deputy-Minister of Finance indicates that at the time
the estimates for 1878-79 were framed, it was not expected that explanations of the
causes of difference between the grant and expenditure for sub-heads would be
necessary when the expenditure against the whole grant was less than the appro-
priation.

(Copy.) Audit Office, 3rd October, 1878.
Dear Sir, — The Minister of Agriculture wishes to place on his permanent staff certain Extra
Clerks, and refers me to an Order in Council of 17th June, 1878, giving 3rd Class Clerks $730 per annum.
Will you be good enough to inform me whether I can authorize the pay-list, amended as the
Order in Council declares it may be, when the Civil Service Act apparently prevents the payment of
more than six hundred aud fifty dollars per annum to a 3rd Class Clerk.
1 am, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
Hon. R. Laflamme, J. L. McDOUGALL,
Minister of Justice. Auditor- General
(Copy.) Ottawa, 7th October, 1878.
Sir.— Re Clerks in Department of Agriculture. As I understand the circumstance of the case
mentioned to me by you, and as I happened to be in the House last Session when the matter was dis-
cussed, I recollect them clearly ; they are a3 follows : —
Objpction was taken by the Hon. Mr. Pope, I think, to so large a vote for contingencies of the
Department of Agriculture as had been asked for. It was explained by Mr. Cartwright that a numberof
Extra Clerks had to be paid out of that vote, and I think the amount of their salaries was mentioned.
These cleiks had been required for some time previously, and it was stated that they would continue
to be required. The suggestion was then made that they should be placed on the permanent staff, and
the amount required for their salaries transferred from the vote for contingencies to that for the staff.
This was agreed to by Mr. Cartwright, and was doGe in that way, appearing in the estimates. I see by
Mr. C's. note to Mr. Simpson's memorandum of 25th June, 1878, that the word "extra" used in the
estimate, was used as meaning " additional." The facts, however, shortly, are that Parliament voted
$6,000 fur the Extra Clerks in the Department, and an Order in Council has been passed making the
same gentlemen who had formerly been employed as Extra Clerks Permanent Clerks, ai the same salary
they bad been receiving since they were employed. Under these circumstances, 1 think you are fully
justified in paying them the $730 per annum, and the fact that they are made clerks of the third class
should not alter their rights.
Your obedient servant,
Z. A. LASH,
Deputy Minister of Justice.

they govern the salaries of civil servants, have not been observed, viz. :
7. A probationary clerk shall enter the service at a salary of three hundred
dollars per annum, and shall serve in that capacity and at that rate of salary for at
least one year before being eligible for permanent appointment as a third class clerk.
9. A third class clerk shall receive a salary of four hundred dollars for his first
years' service as such, and may thereafter have an annual increase of fifty dollars per
annum, until his salary is six hundred and fifty dollars per annum, but he shall not
be eligible for promotion into the second class until after five years' service in the
third class.
10. A junior second class clerk shall receive a salary of seven hundred dollars
for his first years' service as such, and may thereafter have an annual increase of
fifty dollars per annum until his salary is one thousand dollars per annu-n, but he
shall not be eligible for promotion into the senior second class until after five years'
service in the junior second class ; a senior second class clerk shall receive a salary
of one thousand one hundred dollars for his first years' service as such, and may have
an annual increase of fifty dollars per annum until his salary is one thousand four
hundred dollars per annum; but he shall be eligible for promotion into the first class
at any period of his service in the senior second class.
11. A first class clerk shall receive a salary of not less than one thousand two
hundred dollars per annum, and may have an annual increase of fifty
dollars per annum, until his salary is one thousand eight hundred dollars per
annum. But if any clerk promoted into the first class has, at the time of such promotion,
a higher salary than one thousand two hundred dollars per annum, he shall continue
to receive such salary until by length of service in the first class he has a right to
that amount as a first class clerk, from which time he shall receive the annual
increase until his salary is one thousand eight hundred dollars per annum ; a first
class clerk shall be eligible for promotion at any period of his service in the first
olass.
19. No extra clerk shall, except under an Order in Council, be employed in any
Department unless for a period not exceeding one month, for which he may be paid
at a rate not exceeding one dollar and fifty cents per diem, out of the contingencies
of the Department, on the certificate of the head or deputy head thereof; except
only that if such extra clerk be an accountant, a book-keeper, or a person of special
attainments, and employed as such, he may be paid at a rate not exceeding four
dollars per diem. But an extra clerk may, under an Order in Council made on the
application and report of the head of the Department, that the same is requisite, be
employed for a longer period than one month, but not exceeding six months, and he
shall, during such period, be borne on the pay list of the Department ; after the end
of the six months, such extra clerk shall only be retained in the Department as a
probationary clerk, if nominated, examined, and appointed as such in the manner
required by this Act; but if so appointed, the time during which he has served as an
extra clerk may be counted in his service as probationary clerk.
20. No allowance or compensation shall be made for any extra service whatsoever
which any officer or clerk may be required to perform in the Department to which
he belongs.

h. Should have been charged to Public Works Department under 31 Victoria,

Below is the explanation of the causes for the expenditure of the office being
greater than the estimates.
(Copy)
Ottawa, December, 1879.
Sir, — With reference to your circular letter of the 10th November, requesting
me to furnish you with information for the Parliament of the Dominion, regarding
the expenditure in this office on contingent account for the year ending 30th June,
1879, I have the honour to state that for several years past the expenditure has
invariably exceeded the Legislative grant, owing to the vote being less than the sum
applied for.
With respect to the year to which you have drawn my attention, I may state
that some of the items are exceptional in their character, arising from a change of
Government during the absence of Governor General from Ottawa, the retirement
of Lord Dufferin, who was succeeded by an Administrator, and the appointment of
a new Governor General, all within first live months of the fiscal year, causing an
increase in many of the usual items of expenditure.
I may observe, with regard to the item for telegrams, that a considerable portion
of that sum is properly chargeable to other offices at whose instance they were sent,
or to unforeseen expenses.
I am further to state that the expenditure during seven twelfths ( T 7 ¥ ) of the
year t. e. the first part of the administration of the present Governor General has-
not exceeded the proportion of the $15,000, voted by Parliament.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your most obedient servant,
F. DE WINTON, Major E.A.,
Governor General's Secretary.
The Auditor General.
Note. — Huch charge? a9 appear irregular in the above noted expenditure, with the exception of
that marked/, were made before the Audit Act came into operation, or before the provisions affecting

REMARKS.
a. In this amount is included stationery purchased without reference to the
stationery office.
b. In this amount are included disbursements incident on swearing in of thfr
Ministry at Quebec and Montreal, and with reference to this item, I have to remark
that there has been no tariff or other regulation made by Council governing the
travelling expenses of Ministers. I have assumed that the reason for this is, that a
Minister must be subject to expenses not easily defined, and has a place in Parliament
from which explanations can be given when his expenditure is thought to be excessive.
I have therefore not drawn the attention of the Honourable the Treasury Board to
the absence of directions to me on the subject.
c. In this amount are disbursements of Clerk Privy Council attending swearing
in of Ministry at Quebec and Montreal.
d. Does not appear to be a proper charge on contingencies.

Ottawa, 13th November, 1879.
Sir, — I beg to acknowledge receipt of your communication of the 10th inst., in
which you call my attention to the expenditure for contingencies during the last
fiscal year, and in which you state that reasons are required for the difference when
the expenditure is less than the appropriation, as well as when it is more than the
appropriation. The expenditure for contingencies is $1,145.56 below the estimate.
I beg to say that this result is due to the strictest economy, which has prevailed in
the Department during the past year.

Ottawa, 24th November, 13*79.
Sim-Referring to your letter of the 10th instant, respecting the excess of expen-
diture over appropriation in the matter of the <^»S en ^
during the financial year last past, I regret not to be able to furnish you any«pto
ation "satisfactory to myself or which would be satisfactory ^ /ou J[ oa^only
remark that, as you are aware, the Department consists of * ?™ b ^^
business in each of which is rapidly increasing, and it is q^ite impossible ^ estimate
with any degree of accuracy the sum which would be required to meet contingent
expenses for the year in advance ; this is the only -explanation I .can n ^-
* I may add that in consequence of the great increase o fb . M1 ^™S
especially in the Indian and Dominion Lands Branches taken in J ^ n £*^™
the fact that the estimate for contingencies for the current financial ^.T e f ^ e e ~
by Parliament to $6,000, we will require to ask for a considerable supplementary
estimate to carry us through to the 30th June next.

(Copy.)
Ottawa, 17th November, 1879.
Sir, — I am in receipt of your letter of the 10th instant, on the subject of the
expenditure for the contingencies of the Finance Department for the fiscal year end-
ing 30th June last, and requesting an explanation of the excess of the expenditure
over the estimate.
In reply thereto, I have the honour to state that the excess was made up through
the increased charge for stationery and printing, caused by the reorganization of the
Depatment, which necessitated the printing of several sets of new books and forms,
but on the other hand, I beg to call your attention to _the fact that the expenditure
for contingencies of the late Department of the Beceiver-General and Treasury Board
was considerably under the amount sanctioned by Parliament ; taking the three
offices together, the total expenditure was less than the total sums voted.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,

Below is the Departmental explanation for variation between grant and expend i
ture : —
" U ° P>,) Ottawa, 12th December, 1879.
Sir,— Adverting to your favour of the 10th ult,. re Departmental contingencies,
I have the honour to state in reply thereto, that the difference between the appro-
priation for the years 1878-9 of $16,000, and the actual expenditure, $13,725.61, was
caused by: 1st, an unexpected saving in the expenditure for advertizing, in consequence
of the resumption of specie payments in the United States, which rendered no longer
necessary the weekly notices of authorized discount on United States invoices,whereby
an amount in round numbers of $4,000 expected expenditure was saved; 2nd, on the
other hand, the charges in the tariff during the year necessitated an unanticipated
increase of expenditure for stationery, forms, books, printing, &c, of about $2,000.
Other items ol a trivial nature, which necessarily fluctuate from year to year, to cover
which no specific calculation is or can be made when making estimates, have been
somewhat less during the year in question than usual, thus accounting for the balance
of saving effected.
I am, Sir,
Yours &c,
J. JOHNSON,
Commissioner of Customs.

Below is the explanation of the^Dcpartment for the difference between the grant
md xpenditure : —
Ottawa, 14th November, 1819.
Sir,— I am in receipt of your letter of the 10th instant, asking for explanations
as to the difference between the amount of Departmental contingencies estimated for
the service for 1878-9, and the amount actually expended, which is $1,591.12 less
than the estimates.
1st. In reply, I beg to inform you that the Departmental contingencies, as well
as the outdoor contingencies, are of a nature which it is impossible to estimate with
accuracy. It sometimes happens that larger quantities of supplies are required than
can be foreseen — sometimes less quantities ; so also with reference to special assistance,
which materially depends upon the amount of business done, and this cannot always
be foreseen.
2nd. It has always been the wish of this Department to keep within its estimates,
and whenever it has been considered prudent to lessen the amount asked for as
compared with previous years, it has done so.
3rd. Under all the circumstances, I do not consider the difference between the
amount asked for and the amount that was necessary at all unreasonable.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
A. BKUNEL,
Commissioner*

Below is the Departmental explanation for the excess of expenditure over grant:
(Copy.)
Post Office Department,
Ottawa, 15th December, 1879.
Sir, — In reply to your letter of November 10th, calling the attention of the Post-
master General to the expenliture on contingencies for the year ended 30th June,
1879 — which you state exceeds the appropriation by a sum of $3,412.13, I am to say
that the Postmaster General, upon looking into the details of the expenditure, finds
that the excess appears to have arisen from the very largo outlay for extra clerk?,
during the last fis :al year, and he has taken measures to prevent any such excess of
expenditure during the current fiscal year.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
W. WHITE,
Secretary.

(Copy)
Ottawa, 11th December, 1879.
Sir, — In reply to the circular of the 10th ultimo, respecting Departmental
contingencies for 1878-9, I have the honour to state that the excess of expenditure
over the vote for the contingent expenses of the Department of Agriculture, is
owing to the fact that although partial measures have been taken towards complet-
ing the working staff of the Department, it is still necessary to constantly employ
extra clerks. The contingencies otherwise are within the vote.
I have the honour to be, Sir,

Sir, — I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 10th
ultimo, calling my attention to the amount expended by this Department in excess
of the estimates for contingencies during the past fiscal year, and in reply, I beg to
inform you the Department submitted no estimate for the expenditure referred to
during the period above named, the sum placed in the estimates being allotted by the
Finance Department.

Sir, — With reference to the letter of this day's date, from the Deputy- Minister of
Marine and Fisheries, returned herewith, although, upon examination ot the manuscript
I cannot find any document showing the amount required for their contingencies, I
am confident that the sum voted would not have been placed in the estimates without
authority, either from Council or tne Honourable the Minister of Marine.
I may mention that the estimates of the Department of Marine for the year
referred to appear to have been sent in in a very irregular manner and piecemeal.

The following letter from the Accountant of Contingencies, explains the difference
between grant and expenditure.
Ottawa, 23rd December, 1879.
Sir,— In reply to your letter calling my attention to the expenditure during the
fiscal year ended 30th June, 1879, on contingencies of Departments generally, and
Civil Service Board, as compared with the estimates. I have the honour to inform
you that no estimate was ever given to me for my guidance, as relates to Depart-
ments generally. With reference to the payments to the Civil Service Board, they
were made upon the authority in force for very many years, and my payment of
the same were never questioned.

REMABKS.
Note. — The vote for contingencies has been treated in the past as a convenient provision for pay-
ing charges of a minor character nut otherwise authorized.
Among the amounts paid contrary to Statutes, the principal are those which are forbidden by the
Civil Service Act, 3lst Victoria, chapter 34.
Section 19 of said Act provides that no Extra Clerk, shall be employed for more than one mouth
except unier an Order in Council, but it has been customary to continue the services of persons for
lengthened periods. It appears to me that the wording of the section quoied did not bear ihe con-
structions which have been put upon it, but as the matter is doubtful, 1 havj reserved it for such
action as may now be thought advisable
Section 20 provides that no allowance or compensation shall be made for any extra service what-
ever, which any officer or clerk may be required to perform in the Department to which he belongs.
Against above restriction there has been paid ; —

Departments generally..... 53 50
$3,199 75
The petty expenses are not usually given in detail, and in some instances more than $50 has been
paid in one payment.
It will be observed that the several Departments do not adhere to the regulation that all printing
and stationery are to be ordered through the Queen's Printer, and Stationer respectively.
3i Victoria, chapter 35, section 2, makes it illegal to pay from contingencies charges for certain
articles i. e furniture, fittings, repairs, &c , and yet, as appears by the notes to the expenditure of the
different Departments, payment for such articles has been frequently made.
(Copy) Audit Office. 7th June, 1879.
Sir, — As the Minister of Finance is about to leave Ottawa to be away for some
time, and as you may wish to consult him on the subject T)f this letter, I now draw
your attention to a question which might otherwise have been postponed until the
beginning of the coming fiscal year.
1 have spoken to you several times regarding the unsatisfactory way in which
the payments by the contingency office are made.
The Civil Service Act of 1868 points out the method by which ihe Accountant
of Contingencies should deal with applications for payments, the classes of services
&c, for which he may pay, and the evidence of the general accuracy of the accounts
which he should require.
I learn from the present Accountant that he considers his refusal to pay any
claim authorized by a Deputy Head of a Department unwarranted.
Every Deputy Head cannot possibly be fully acquainted with the restrictions put
by Parliament upon the Contingency Office. As a consequence irregularities exist.
1 have the honour to be, Sir,
J. M. Courtney, Your obedient servant,
Deputy Minister Finance. J. L. McDOUGrALL,
Auditor-General.
Reply.
(Copy.) Ottawa, 12th June, 1879.
Sir, — I have the honour to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 7th
instant, which I placed, as requested, under the notice of the Honourable the Minister
of Finance, and am directed to inform you in reply thereto, that the Minister of Fin-
ance is of opinion that you should call the attention of the Accountant of Contingencies
to the nature of the audit required to bo performed by him under the Contingency Act.

w. There is a balance in hand on tramway account of $751.57. A balance of
$2,001.34 appeared by i he accounts of 1877-78 to be in the hands of the Warden;
$400 in cash and $1,601.34- balance of tramway appropriation of the year 1876. The
following letters explain why the balance of tramway appropriation from 1877-78
appears in the accounts of 1878-9 as $830.30.
(Copy)
Audit Office, October 18th, 1879.
Sir, — Will you kindly explain how it is that a balance of $1,601.34 appears at
the credit of tramway on the 30th June, 1878, and that you put only $8'i0 30 at the
credit of the same account on the 1st July 1878, in your statement for the current
year.
All balances in hand on the 30th Juno, 1878, should be deposited to the credit of
the Receiver General.
The appropriations are only available in the year for which they are voted, and
therefore any amount unexpended at the end of the year, and in the hands of the
Accountant, should be paid over to the Government.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
J. L. McDOUGALL,

J. W. Duchesneau, Esq.,

St. Yincent^de Paul Penitentiary,
2 list October, 1879.
Sir, — In compliance with your request, I have to submit the endowed explan-
ations and papers concerning the matter mentioned in your letter of * the i8th
October instant. I hope they will be sufficient to let you understand how it
happens that there is such a difference between the amount placed at the credit of
the tramway on the 30th of June, 1878, and the amount placed at the credit of the
same on the 1st July 1878. As to the balance remaining on hand from the tramway
fund at the end of the last fiscal year, I beg to state that it was not deposited to the
credit of the Receiver General for the same reason than the preceeding year, that is,
the completion of the tramway. I was allowed to keep the balance on hand at the
end of the fiscal year 1877-78, and I thought the same latitude would be granted
till the completion of the work.
There remains now but few accounts to be paid from that fund, and if you
instruct me to do so, I shall return the balance without delay.

tctual balance in bank on the 30th June of $1,601.34,
while -x irtually the amount of the lumber $771.04 was already expended.
Tii ent for the month of June 1878, transmitted to the Auditor-General
on the 24th July, 1878, of which enclosed give copy, state the transaction and gives

a. By the 41 Vic, cap. 4, the unexpended balance of the voted estimates of St.
John and Halifax Penitentiary were to be applied en bloc for Dorchester Peniten-
tiary so soon as opened. The Penitentiary is not yet opened. The charge against this
vote, although not correct by the strict interpretation of the explanation in the
estimates, seems to be in accordance with the intention of Parliament in recognizing
the transfer.

REMARKS.
a. I have noi been furnished with any statements of expenditure, or vouchers,
in connection with the Senate appropriations. See my preliminary report.
b. The above remarks will apply to the House of Commons appropriations.
It will be observed that all the appropriations have been drawn in full, and that
no refunds have been made.
c. Remarks under a apply to these grants.
d. This vote is under the control of the Queen's Printer. See his letter below.
e. The Department of Justice informs me, that the consolidation of the laws was
abandoned for the present, and in consequence no vote was taken for 1819-80.
f. Remarks undor a apply to this grant.
y. The expenditure that might arise in connection with the general election
being unknown, authority was asked to cover any possible outlay. The ordinary
expenditure will be much less than for this year.
h. No very close estimate can bo made of the expenditure under this sub-head..
Office of the*Queen's Printer,
Ottawa, 30th December, 1879.
Dear Sir,
I do not see my way to reduce the estimate for the Statutes. This year
there has been already expended between $11,100 and $11,200, and it is possible
some single Acts may still require to be reprinted.
I cannot foresee the exact size of the forthcoming volume, nor whether the
enormous increase in the number of Justices of the Peace receiving it, which has
been going on for three or four years past, will continue. A comparatively small
increase in the size of the volume, or any considerable additions to the commissions
of the Peace for the several Provinces would run the cost up to the full $'2,000..
It has always seemed to me better to estimate for a little more than is necessary
than to be obliged to ask for a supplementary vote, as happened a few years ago.
Yours, truly,
B. CHAM3ERLIN.
P.S. — Of course, the apparent cost is not so large as given above, as the balance
of the vote for lb77-'78 was used ; and so I shall doubtless need the balance of this
year to get through work which will doubtless require to bo done in June. The
paper must be bought before that, and a great part of the printing done in that
monih.

b. Acting on the advice of the Deputy Minister of Justice, copy of whose letter
appears below, no payments were made to the late Speaker from the 30th September,
1878, to the opening of the Session of 1879. This accounts for the unexpended
balance under this head. See Miscellaneous.

Sm,
In reply to your letter of yesterday's date, asking whether Mr. Anglin is
entitled to draw the salary of Speaker of the House of Commons, and if so, at what
time will his right cease, I have the honor to inform you that I am of opinion the
Speaker of the House of Commons is entitled to draw his salary up to the date of
the dissolution of the House only.
I have the honor to be, sir,

Sir, — I have the honour to transmit herewith a copy of that part of appropria-
tion accounts of 1878-9 covering expenditure for Arts, Agricultural and Statistics.
There appears to have been no expenditure for account of Entomological Com-
mission, and an unexpended balance on each of the other votes.
I will thank you for your explanation and remarks on same within the next
two days, as I wish to send them to the printers.
Please return at the same time all previous statements sent you, with your
remarks on same, as they are needed for the purpose above mentioned.
I would also beg to state, that I have not been furnished with any papers in
connection with the expenditure on account of Paris and Australia Exhibitions.

Department of Agriculture,
Ottawa, Canada, 19th January, 1880.
Sir, — I am directed by the Minister of Agriculture, to inform you that the
Parliamentary grant for Immigration and Quarantine purposes, has always been
treated by his predecessors and himself as a whole, without regarding the different
sub-heads of expenditure. The Minister of Agriculture, therefore, requests that it
should be treated in the same manner in your appropriation report, which will be in
keeping with the intention of Parliament.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
J. C. TACHE,
Deputy Minisier of Agriculture,
The Auditor General,
Ottawa.
I have prepared the accounts in accordance with the wish expressed in the
above letter. Future appropriations for any service will not be treated in this
manner, unless instructions be given by Parliament for doing so.

J. L. McDOUGALL,
Auditor- General.
Examined,
John Gorman.
Audit Office, 2nd September, 1878.
Sir, — I should be glad if you would make your departmental expenditure under
letters of credit, instead of as at present.
The letter of credit system is that now generally adopted, and it gives, as far as I
can learn, general satisfaction.
I observe that your Extra Clerks are paid for each month early in the month.
am advised that the practice is not well founded. Be good enough to discontinue it.
I am your obedient servant,
(Signed) J. L. McDOUGA I ,L,
Auditor-General.
J. C. Tach£, Esq.,
Deputy Minister of Agriculture.
Audit OFFicE,^2nd September, 1879.
Sir, — Under the letter of credit system you will apply for the amount which you
are likeiy to require during a month. At the end of the month send a statement of
cheques drawn under the letter of credit with a duplicate for the Einance
Department to me, so that the bank to which the letter of credit is addressed may be
reimbursed. I should be obliged by getting, as soon as you can forward them, after
the end of each month, a statement of your appropriation accounts for that month,
accompanied by your cheques on the banks and the vouchers for the accounts. All
cheques should be made payable to the order of the person who is to receive the
123

starting point, and charge against it all the payments which, according to the

Ottawa, 28th July, 1879.
Sir, — The Queen's Printer has lately made his return of printing and binding
and the paper required for these purposes for the quarter ending 80th June last, and
I find therein an item of $925.25 charged to Census. As you are aware there is no
parliamentary provision for this expenditure in 1878-79, and as the work done is on
account of the Census of 1871, we cannot charge it to that of 1881. Under these
circumstances it will be necessary that you should procure an Order in Council
authorizing the charge to be placed to " Unforeseen Expenses." I shall feel obliged
if you will attend to this matter at your earliest convenience.
Your obedient servant,
J. C. TachS . Esq.,
Deputy Minister of Agriculture.

J. C. Taoh*, Esq.,
Deputy Minister of Agriculture.
Ottawa, 27th October, 1S79.
Sir, — Your appropriation statements as sent month by month during the last
fiscal year were evidently not intended to be final, items having been there charged
against particular votes, which were, from their nature, to have been placed against
other more appropriate votes in your annual statement
Indeed one vote, that for contingenies of Canadian and other Agencies, was
exhausted early in the year according to the monthly statements, although, evidently,
the payments must run over the whole year.
The mode of dealing here with all appropriation accounts furnished by the diffe-
rent Departments to this office is to assign each monthly account, as it comes into
a particular examiner, whose duty it is to make an examination of the statements
and vouchers, and place the expenditure against the proper votes.
You will, therefore, see that it is absolutely necessary for me to have the
expenditure put month by month in the shape in which it should remain.
Will you kindly make out a statement for the year, putting each item to its
proper head of appropriation.
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
(Signed) J. L. McDOUGALL,
Auditor- General.
J.C. Tach*, Esq.,
Deputy Minister of Agriculture.
Ottawa, 28th October, 1879.
Sir, — The accounts of your London Agency are now being examined in this
office, and I would draw your attention to certain peculiarities in the mode of
rendering them, which I should be glad to see altered.
The balance on hand on the 30th June in each year is carried forward to the
next year, instead of being deposited to the credit of the Receiver-General at the Bank
of Montreal. London.
Amounts which are still liabilities, not having been paid, are introduced into the
accounts under the mistaken notion that a statement of the transactions of the year
is needed, whereas the payments alone should be included. Please, therefore,
instruct your Agent at London to deposit to the credit of the Eeceiver-General the
cash which he had on the 30th June last; to introduce in next year's statement the
entire payments of the year, and among other items those which appear in the
account* of 1878-70, but wore not paid.
125
I should like to have the cheques which your Agent draws on his bankers. I
write thus early so that, if possiblo, we may all in future agree upon a mode of
rendecing the statements.

Your most obedient servant,

{Sir, — Not having been furnished with an'appropriation htatementof the expendi-
ture during l878-7y on account of Immigration and Quarantine, I have caused one to
bo prepared, as nearly exact as to details as could be obtained from the papers in my
hands. This statement exhibits the expenditure for the year, as shown by our ledger,
which corresponds with that of the Finance Department.
I send you herewith a copy, and in those cases where the expenditure exceeds or
falls short of the appropriation, I have to ask that you will be pleased to have entered
opposite such difference the cause, and return statement to me.
On comparing this statement with that furnished by you to the Finance Depart-
ment, and pi-inted for the Public Accounts, I have noted several discrepancies, a
memorandum oi the principal of which I give you on the accompanying sheet
(marked A).
As I have previously informed you, my opinion is that the expenditure of each-
year, as published, should be a true exhibit of the moneys paid and charged to the
accounts for that year (see Audit Act, clause 36). I cannot realize any other way by
which these accounts can correctly correspond.
You will also please note that the Department should furnish these appropriation
accounts (see Audit Act, clause 37).
I have the honour to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,

credit.

made by depositing cheques for $362.43 and $ 125 to the credit of the Receiver -General.

b. The unexpended balance of $231 is occasioned by the death of Ehoda Smith
and Jacob Stubbs, and a reduction of $48 in the amount payable to Mrs. George
Prentice and children.
c. Txpenditure, $36,735.27. There is included in this amount $240 which should
have been charged against vote for "Militiamen, &c, Upper Canada, (War of 1312),"
-also $75.27 for Queen's Printer's and stationery accounts which should have been
charged against Departmental Contingencies. Deducting both of the above amounts
the expenditure would be $36,420.

REMARKS.
a. The balance of $3,752.05 excess of expenditure on this estimate arises from
the placing of Justices Taschereau and Loranger on the retired list.
b. The increase in this case, $4,517.64, by the addition of Judges Burrows and
Wells and Chief Justice Richards.
c. The increase in this case, $1,956.97, by the addition of Judge Wilkins.
d. The estimate in this case of $2,133.33 was not expended, the pensioner, Judge
Wilraot, having died.
e. This sum has been charged to pensions, and deducted from allowance of Hon.
SirE. Hodgson, Kt, Lieut.-Governor of Prince Edward Island.
/. The balance of $987.64 unexpended, occasioned by the removal, by death, of
Madame Valiere de St. Eeal and Miss Ralston of the family of late Major-General
Shaw.
g. The balance of $666.69 unexpended, occasioned by the death during the year of
R. J. Ker, late Auditor, British Columbia.
h. Unexpended balance, $2,840.00.
j Unexpended balance, $365.02. The above balances have lapsed as not being
required, although a portion of these balances may be accounted for by the removal
from the pension list of some of the old militiamen by death, yet it will appear that
an over estimate has been made under these heads.

Department of Militia and Defence,
Ottawa, 21st November, 1879.
Sir, — In compliance with your circular dated 11th instant, I have now the
honour to forward herewith, statement of expenditure for militia service for the financial
year ending 30th June, 1879, from which you will be able to make a comparison of
the yearly expenditure with the monthly accounts, and the Parliamentary
appropriation.
I have also to submit the following observations in regard to the difference
between the estimates and the expenditure under each sub-head of the appropriatiou,
viz. : -
(a.) Salaries, Military Branch and District Staff.
Unexpended balance, $716.66. This balance has lapsed. The original estimate
provided for the salary of a paymaster in Military District No. 10, Manitoba, saved by
the amalgamation of the duties with that of the storekeeper, the pay being charged
to another vote.
(b.) Brigade Majors.
Unexpended balance, $4,086.46. This balance has lapsed, not being required-
.a saving having been effected by a reduction of the staff of brigade majors.
(c.) Allowance for Drill Instruction.
Unexpended balance, $210.60. Balance lapsed after paying ail claims under that
head received previous to the 30th June, 1879. The estimate for this service is
asually framed as near* as possible, to mseb the probable expenditure for the year.
(d.) Ammunition (e.) Clothing; (f.) Military Stores.
Unexpended balances, $6,715.76. This balance was carried forward for three,
months, under Order in Council of the 28th June, 1879, -to meet the payment of claims
from the Imperial Government and contractors, for the supply of stores under the
above heads which had been ordered during the year, but the accounts for which
had not been received in time to enable the Department to make payment before the
end of the financial year.
(g.) Public Armouries and Care of Arms.
Unexpended balance, $114.87. Balance lapsed. The estimate, it will be observed
has been made as near as possible to meet the service required.
(b.) Drill Pay and Camp Purposes.
Unexpended balance, $1,530.16. Balance lapsed. The character of this service
is such that it would be impossible to estimate for the exact amount required.
(j.) Contingencies.
Unexpended balance, $342.68. This balance has lapsed. This estimate is in
tended to cover expenditures such as aid to rifle associations and bands of efficient
-corps, and all contingencies of a general and unforeseen character connected with
militia service. The estimate is made as near as possible with a view of meeting the
probable expenditure, based upon previous years' experience.
(k.) Drill Sheds and Rifle Ranges.
Unexpended balance, $902.88. Balance carried forward to 1879-80 by Order
in Council dated 28th June, 1879, to meet the payment of contractors' claims and
others, entered into prior to the end of the financial year.

(1.) Care and Maintenance of Military Properties.
Unexpended balance, $1,649.6*7. Balance carried forward for three months,
under Order in Council of the 28th June, 1879, to meet payment of claims that could
not be received in time to pay before the end of the financial year.
(m,) 'Royal Military College.
Unexpended balance, $8,57*7.74. Balance lapsed as not being required.
Amount made up by refunds, being contributions from cadets.
(n.) Military Schools.
Unexpended balance, $9,992.46. The sum of $7.54 only was expended under
this head. The original estimate was to provide for two schools of instruction,
previously in operation for six months of the year in the Provinces of Nova Scotia
and New Brunswick, but subsequently were discontinued. The appropriation, there-
fore, was not required.
(o.) Pay, Maintenance, &c, of " A " and " B " Batteries, &c.
Unexpended balance, $1,076.52. Balance has lapsed, not being required.
The estimate has been framed to meet, as near as possible, the amount supposed to be
necessary for the service.
(p.) Ordnance and Equipment of Batteries of Artillery.
Unexpended balance, $4,524.46. This balance lapsed, as not being required.
(q.) Guard at Rideau Hall.
Unexpended balance, $396.05. Balance lapsed. This being a new service, it
was impossible to anticipate the exact amount necessary for the period covered by
the estimate. The whole amount was not required.
(r.) Precautionary Measures for Defensive Purposes,
Unexpended balance, $275.44. Balance lapsed, the whole amount appropriated
for this service not being required.
(s.) Calling out the Militia in aid of Civil Power.
Unexpended balance, $1,854.24. This balance was carried forward by Order in
Council of the 28th June, 1879, to meet payment of claims which had not been finally
.adjusted prior to the 30th June, 1879, the service having been performed in 1878.

I also find that two vouchers, furnished by Captain Davidson of Port Perry,
Ontario, are not signed alike. It is impossible for me to decide which is the correct
signature. In fact, Captain Davidson may not have signed either. In a case where
the person entitled to receive money is not in a position to sign his name, the one
who acts for him should sign as his attorney.

Sir,— I have the honour to acknowledge both of your letters of the 3rd inst., with
explanations, and in answer, I beg to state that your explanations as to vouchers
Nos. 19 and 23, in Paymaster Alger's district, are quite satisfactory. I acknowledge
the recoipt of cheques in support of the payments made to the pensioners (veterans)
of the war of 1812, but I should like you also to furnish me in support of this the
vouchers, the same as you furnished for the U. C. militia pensions and a statement.
My point with reference to Captain Davidson's signature is this, if the signature
purports to be made by an individual, it should be made by the hand of that indivi-
dual. On the other hand, if the signature is made by another person for any one,
it should be in the form

Sir, — I have the honour, by the direction of the Honourable the Minister of
Militia and Defence, to request that a letter of credit for six thousand dollars ($6,000)
may issue in favour of the treasurer of the Dominion of Canada Rifle Association
(Lieut.-Colonel Macpherson), for the purpose of paying the expenses of sending a
•Canadian team to compete at Wimbledon this year.
The above mentioned sum to be made a charge, after the 1st July next against
the Parliamentary vote, No. 69, of forty-six thousand dollars, under the head of con-
tingencies, including aid to rifle associations, &c, &c, for the financial year ending
30th June, 1880.

Sir,— With reference to your application, dated 19th inst., to pay the treasurer

Sir, — In auditing the payments made to the veterans of the war of 1812-15, for
the years 1878-9, I find that a cheque issued in favour of one Antoine Archambault,
and paid by the Bank Ville Marie, is endorsed by "Clotildo (her X mark) Gaudette,"
stating she is the widow of the late Antoine Archambault, he having died on the 1st
July, 1878, the date on which the cheque was issued. It is also witnessed by C. T.
Germain and F. G. Boutillier.
Is it customary in such cases to pay the whole amount of the pensions for the
coming year in advance to the heirs or administrators of deceased pensioners.

on the 1st of July, or as soon as possible after that date, the whole amount of the
pension ($20) to veterans who aro alive on that date. Thus, the pension for the
coming year in advance is paid. According to this* ruling, the veteran Antoine
Archainbault who was alive on the 1st July, was entitled to his pay.

PUBLIC WOEKS.
INTERCOLONIAL RAILWAY.
Finance Department,
Ottawa, 12th November, 1879.
Sir, — In accordance with the regulations established by minutes of the Treasury
Board of the 11th June last, under which T am authorized to continue in charge of
the audit of the accounts of the railways belonging to the Dominion Government, I
have now the honour to report that during my recent tour of inspection in the Mari-
time Provinces, I completed, in the general offices at Moncton and Charlottetown,
the usual verification of the transactions of the Intercolonial Railway and of Prince
Edward Island Railway, for the fiscal year ended 30th June, 1879, and that I found
the railway books in perfect accord with the returns and vouchers for that period,,
received from time to time at Ottawa.
This being my first report under the Audit Act of 1878, it may be well to
explain here in as concise a way as possible, the general manner in which the fiscal
business of the railways operated by Government is conducted, in order that the
difficulties experienced in adjusting the transactions for entering in the Dominion
books at Ottawa, under the Parliamentary heads of account, within the time fixed
by the Audit Act, may be more thoroughly understood.
In the first place, although there is no separate Parliamentary appropriation
under the head of railway stores, there is every year a large outlay constantly going
on from month to month to recoup the large stock of stores, sometimes reaching a
value of over two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, which it is'necessary to keep on
hand ready for use at any moment.
Under the system of accounting followed in the railway offices no stores are
ever charged to either capital or working expenses until actually issued for consump-
tion, and as the issues are made in very small quantities from hour to hour from no
less than twelve stores at different points along the line of the Intercolonial Railway,
considerable delay must necessarily elapse after the close of every month before all
the issues can be checked and returns made to the accountant, upon which alone
charges to debit of capital account or working expenses can be made in his books,
and returns prepared for the Departments at Ottawa.
There is another disturbing element in connection with railway expenditures,,
arising from the fact that large sums of money must be paid out every month to
meet back charges and settlements with other lines, none of which is chargeable to
the heads of account recognized by Parliament.
Payments on railway account are made (1) chiefly by cheques issued and signed
by the accountant, and countersigned by the Chief Superintendent and drawn against
credit opened in their favour with banks on the spot, under the authority of the
Finance Department, and (2) by payments under certificates issued direct by the-
Railway Department at Ottawa. Every cheque issued is payable to order, particu-
lars of the payment are written upon its face, and the number of the voucher which
represents it is also appended.
On the 8th, 15th, 22nd, and last day of every month, a return of all cheques
issued is made up by the accountant, and transmitted to the Finance Department,
upon the receipt of which a cheque to recoup the bank for the amount is remitted
and charged, at Ottawa, to a railway suspense account.
The bank also sends weekly statements of the letter of credit account with the-
cheques paid. As soon as possible after the close of every month I also receive from
the Railway Department, in a condensed form, returns showing how all moneys
have been applied and accounted for during the month, every cheque issued being
represented by a voucher. All these documents are carefully examined in my office,
and subsequently verified by a thorough examination of the books on the spot in the-
general offices, during my visits of inspection.
140
Tlio general oilicos aro divided into various Departments, through which all
expenditures, M WOlJ aa tho railway traffic are managed and accounted for.
There is B rigid system of local audit established in the general offices, under
whioh every account is thoroughly chocked and certified by officers of the branch,
to which it belongs. All bills aro further certified by the Chief Superintendent
before an}- oheqoe in payment is issued by tho accountant.
The traffic of (lie railway is also most thoroughly chocked by a Traffic Auditor,
who also makes a daily audit of tho cash-book.
During mv visit to tho general offices I make a rigid examination of tho busi-
done in the several Departments, scrutinize closely the details of tho various
ta of expenditures in the subsidiary books, and test tho work in such a manner
as to thoroughly satisfy myself that the local audit is satisfactorily performed, and
that all the returns received at Ottawa, from tho accountant, are in perfect accord
with his books, as well as with the original data upon which his entries havo been
based.
I havo entered into these details in order to show that the fiscal business of the
Government Railways is of such an exceptional character that it is impossible to deal
with it in the same manner as with other branches of the public service, or to conduct
the audit in strict accordance with the. law as it now stands.
In all other services, every payment can be charged direct to the head of
account under which the expenditure has been voted by Parliament, whereas, for
the reasons I have stated, the same course cannot be followed in dealing with rail-
way outlay, a large portion of which must always remain in suspense until the
accounts have been adjusted, as I have shown in the general offices from month to
month, and the returns upon which alone I am permitted to base transfer entries
from the suspense account to the capital and working expenses account from month
to month, can be prepared for the Dominion ledger.
It will therefore be easily understood, that as the returns are always at least one
month in arrear in reaching my office, it is almost impossible to prevent over ex-
penditure here, or even to ascertain how the Parliamentary appropriations really
stand at the close of any year, until long after the outlay has actually taken place.
Under these circumstances, I am of opinion that Clause 36 of the Audit Act,
which authorizes unexpended balances to be carried forward for three months after
the close of the fiscal year, should be amended. It provides, ' l that upon causes being
" shown to tho satisfaction of the Governor in Council, he may, by Order in Council
" to be made before the first of August of each year, extend the time for finally closing
11 the account of any appropriation for a period of not more than three months from
" the end of the financial year, after the expiration of which extended time, and not
" before, the balance of such appropriation shall lapse and be written off."
As I have shown that it is impossible to ascertain how the railway appropriations
really stand until after the 1st of August in any year, it seems only reasonable that
the time (1st August) up to which authority may be given by Order in Council for
carrying forward unexpended balances of appropriations, is too limited, and ought
therefore, as regards railway appropriations, at least, to be extended. If this be not
done, balances may hereafter, as happened to be the case at the close of the last fiscal
year, lapse before the accounts can be adjusted, or any steps can be taken to carry
them forward, and make them available for the completion of the service of the year,
for which they were voted.
I regret to have to repeat here what I have already reported to you, that the
appropriations for working the railways were exceeded during the last fiscal year.
From the explanations already given in the present report, it will be easily under-
stood that it is impossible, outside of he Railway Department, to control their expendi-
tures, or keep them within the limits of the Parliamentary appropriations under the
stringent provisions of the present Audit Act.
Appended to this report are general summaries of the transactions of the Inter-
colonial Railway, and of the Prince El ward Island Railway, for fiscal year ended
141
30th June, 1879, which will be found to correspond with the Dominion ledger and
railway books, and statements at that date.
As the reports of the railway officials to be printed and laid before Parlia-
ment will, I understand, enter very fully into all the particulars of the transactions
of the year, and afford all necessary explanations as to the excessive expenditure to
which I have alluded, I deem it unnecessary to repeat them here, or to encumber
this report with statements of details which I have already prepared for the Public
Accounts.
Should any further information be required, I shall be happy to procure it if
necessary from the railway offices, and furnish it with all convenient speed.
I have the*honour to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
THOMAS D. TIMS,
Financial Inspector

a.and b. As the Pacific Railway appropriation was but one vote, the Government was not limited
to the estimated expenditure for each sub- head, and therefore these expenditures were admissible.
c. The Georgian Bay Branch sub-head has been charged with the expenditure on the Canada
Central Extension, on account of the grouping above mentioned of the sub-heads in one vote, and
because there was no specific sub-head for it.
d. Between Lake Superior and Keewatin, $300,000. This amount was in a supplementary estimate
•of the Session, in which the principal estimaies were introduced, and the sub-division was not made, so
that it was impossible to determine how much it was expected by Parliament should be expended on
«ach sub-division of the Railway from Lake Superior to Keewatin.
e. This arises from works not having been proceeded with as rapidly as expected.

Audit Office,
Ottawa, 27th August, 1878.
DKAB Sir, — There is no balance of the vote for the Tower, and therefore I cannot
certify for the payment to Mr. McKay of $295.38 on the certificate from you as now
made out.
Your obedient servant,
J. L. McDOUGALL,
Auditor-General.
T. Trudeau, Esq.,
Deputy Minister of Public Works.
Ottawa, 25th September, IS 78.
Sir,— In reply to your letter of the 22nd ultimo respecting the superannuation
of Mr. Sippell, 1 have the honour to state that having recovered his health, the state
of which had necessitated his retirement, Mr. Sippell has been able to continue his
connection with the work in which he had previously been engaged.
I have the honor to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
R BBAUN,
Secretary.
J L. McDougall, Esq.,
Auditor-General.
5th November, 1878.
Dear Sir, — The Auditor suggests that it would be very convenient if you would
apply the Letter of Credit system to all Mr. Harper's payments. No difficulty ought
to arise (when a pay-list for labour, etc., is properly authenticated and it is intended
to disburse the money through the paymaster) in issuing a cheque against your
credit in Mr. Harpers favour to enable him to pay, and the same should be done
with other miscellaneous payments that it might be found convenient to pay through
the paymaster. If this is done it will obviate the necessity for a Bank account for
Mr. Harper at all, and all payments made through him will appear in your monthly
statement, to the Auditor.
If you see no objection to this suggestion you might begin with your present
application which I re-enclose to you for that purpose.
Your obedient servant,
J. PATTEBSON,

In reply to your enquiry of the loth inst., with reference to the sum of $2,734.22
relative to the Cutler matter in connection with the Cornwall Canal, I beg to state
that the Department of Justice will be.better able to give you the information asked,
as the cheque for that amount was issued at the request of that Department.

Ottawa.
30th December, 1818.
I have the honor to report that the Deputy Minister of Public Works has
represented that the paymaster of this department cannot conveniently be brought
under the Letter of Credit System so far as the payments to workmen go, and that the
Hon. the Minister is desirous of having your minute regarding the mode of enabling
Mr. Harper to pay, modified so far as to permit direct payments to Mr. Harper,
covering pay-lists.
Although I still believe that the L. C. system is the most suitable for all classes
of payments made by Mr. Harper, I have the honor to recommend that the modifica-
tion be made.
f Respectfully submitted,
J. L. McDOUGALL,
Auditor-General.
The Hon. The Treasury Board.
31st December, 1878.
Dear Sir, — The accounts for October from your department are now undergoing
examination. I find that y6ur accountant has not continued the system adopted with
reference to the former months, of charging each item expended under any appro-
priation in one statement against that appropriation.
I should be much obliged by your .going back to the former mode of rendering
the accounts. It would expedite the work vovy much and prevent the necessity of
frequent inquiries at your department.
I have the honor to be,
Your obedient servant,

of the Pacific Eailway Staff. It would be well, I think, to have such salaries
established by Order in Council when the service is likely to be of lengthened tenure,
and it would be convenient for me if a pay-list, similar to the Departmental one,
were regularly supplied for those who may usually be paid at Ottawa.

Mr. Harper, I have to request that accounts for travelling expanses be closed
periodically for terms not longer than 3 months, and in all cases at the close of the
financial year.
In this instance the expenditure has remained unpaid from October 23, 1877.
It is impossible to learn from the Public Accounts the expenditure of each year, while
sums like the one above referred to are not included in the statements.
I have the honor to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
J. L. McDOUGALL,

T. Trudeau, Esq.,
Deputy Minister of Public Works.
7th April, 1879.
Sir, — On a second application for Mr. Harper's travelling expenses extending
back to October, 1877, I beg in addition to what I said yesterday, to remark that the
two applications amount to nearly $(300 ; that Mr. Harper must either have used his
private money for the public service, or have devoted to the expenses of travelling,
what was entrusted to him for other purposes.
I assume in the meantime that tbe money spent was public money.
If the business of your Department with this office is to be kept in anything like
a regular way, application should at once be made to make good to Mr. Harper any
money which has been spent by him without authority from this office ; and no
money should in future be expended by him except for the service named in the certi-
ficates, on which the money was placed at his disposal.
I have the honor to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant.

drawn under letter of credit.
In yo;ir statement there is included an expenditure of $1,340.87 against the
appropriation for Rents and Repairs, while the balance of that appropriation appears
to be less than two hundred dollars. Please explain.
I have delayed the passing of the application in the meantime.

7th April.
Si k, . have the honor to inform you thai under a general letter of credit given
to the Department ofPnblic Works, an expenditure of $1,349 has been made on Bents
and Repairs while the previous charges against the Parliamcntatary appropriations
left a balancoofonly $200.
I have called the attention of the Department of Public Works to the circum-
stances, and learn that they had not been watching the appropriations, and had
ceased issuing checks for Rents and Repairs whenever I called their attention to the
state of the appropriation account.
It appears to me that the Bank being authorized to advance a certain amount to
a Department, must be repaid any amount drawn under the authority, not greater
than the amount specified; but as tho point is a new one, so far as my duties have
gone, it seemed proper that a statement of the case should be laid before the Hon.
the Treasury Board.
I beg to suggest that accountants generally be advised of the necessity of
watching the state of the appropriation, when disbursing under letters of credit.
All of which is respectfully submitted,
I have the honor to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
J. L. McDOUGALL,

The amount should be included in the supplementary estimates.

19th May, 1879.
Sir, — I have two certificates from you in favor of Wra Davis & Sons of $14,664.32
and $1,065.15 respectively. The appropriation named by you in each case is Culbute
Lock.
The only moneys available, so far as I can see, for anything connected with the
Culbute Lock, are the $24,000, improving approach to Canal, and $9,000, Culbute
Canal, in the supplementary estimates.
169
Please define in your certificates, which I return, the particular appropriation of
the two, to which you consider that the expenditure in each case properly belongs.
It appears to me that no part of the outlay was made in improving the approach
to the canal.

Your obedient servant,

Sir, — I have your application for payment to James Mitchell of $1,414.67, cer-
tificate 1,213. The services were rendered in 1873 and 1874. On several occasions
I have given you by letter the substance of the opinion of the Minister of Justice ;
that expenditure of previous years is not a proper charge against an appropriation
of this, unless specially voted. I do not find the sums in this certificate mentioned
in the supplementary estimates, and I think that they are not legitimate charges
against the general vote for Eents and Eepairs,

Sir, — With reference to the disbursements for the wages of men employed by
the different slide masters on the Ottawa Eiver Works, I should be glad to be
supplied with receipts from the individual men to whom payments are made.
My attention has been called to the fact that the laborers on the works receive
apparently a much higher rate of pay than others of the class are now able to obtain
in ordinary employment.
There is no doubt of the soundness of the general principle of having evidence
that the money has gone to the person entitled to receive it.

respecting an advance made by the Bank of Montreal to that Department authorized
by the Finance Department on the 31st March last, and requesting explanations
thereon.
In reply thereto I have now the honor to state that late in the month of March
application was made to your office by the Public Works Department to issue a
certificate on account of the appropriation for Bents ind Repairs, that you refused to
issue this certificate in as much as the vote was exhausted — that in reply to an
enquiry whether you would issue a certificate in event of a special warrant being
executed you stated that as Parliament was <then in session a special warrant could
not be granted.
Application was then made to me by the Hon. the Minister of Public Works who
stated that an amount would be placed in the supplementary estimates, and requested
me to arrange for a temporary advance with the Bank. This I consented to as I
found the amount required was for payment of daily wages to labourers &c, and the
non-payment would cause great public inconvenience. I need hardly state that in
this course I took proper advice.
I am,
Your obedient servant,

office. It von lind same to be correct you will please give explanations of the
BUrplua or deficit of each sub-head of vote. You will observe there is an expenditure
of $3,896.19 under the head of Miscellaneous not provided for in the Estimates. A
Bum of $2,141.14 expended in the erection of buildings is included in this amount.
Aj8 we are needing the.se papers for the printers, you would much oblige could
you return this statement with your explanations to-morrow.

Ottawa, 24th January, 1880.
Sir, — I have the honor to acknowledge tho receipt of your letter of the 22nd
instant, enclosing a statement prepared in your office of details of expenditure on
account of Meteorological Service for the fiscal year 1878-79, and requesting
explanations in connection therewith.
I beg to inform you that the estimate for this service is prepared by Professor
Kingston, under whose immediate direction the expenditure is made, and I have
referred your letter and statement to him for explanations on the several points to^
which they refer. I may observe, however, the service in question is so varying in
its character that to estimate accurately in detail for its cost would be impossible.
I have never understood the details of these estimates beyond the payment of
salaries or similar fixed charges to be of such a nature as to render them unavailable
for legitimate expenditure in maintaining its general efficiency, but have considered
the total Statutory appropriation, as stated in the Supply Bill, available for any proper
charges, whether unforeseen or otherwise that may arise in its maintenance without
reference to details.
Many of the items charged by Professor Kingstou for convenience sake under
the head of "Miscellaneous" can, if you deem it of importance, be re-distributed,
under the various sub-heads as printed in the Estimates.
I am, Sir,
Your most obedient servant,

order that keepers at isolated stations, who are only visited by the supply steamer
twice in the year, may be enabled to purchase supplies and have them brought by
the steamer.
I have to request that you will be good enough to inform me whether there will
be any objection to his paying for the quarters named as requested.

control of the agent of this Department at Quebec, for the June and September quarter

Mr. Aumond tells mo that you are in doubt whether I need vouchers for expen-

daring this year, the appropriation having been brought down. I am obliged to
report upon all expenditure of this year, no matter how authorized. It appears well
fco take up these matters at once, so as to prevent the labor and trouble which must be

Sir, — In examining the appropriation accounts of your Department and its
agencies, I find that the vouchers are very much in arrear. Before the accounts can
be put in a state for submission to Parliament it will be necessary to provide me with
all statements and vouchers for the year's expenditure. I should now be in possession
of all that relates to the expenditure to the end of March. Before the 1st of August
all that is required to enable me to make a full examination of the expenditure of the

Sir, — I find in examining the accounts and vouchers of your Quebec agent, Mr'
Gregory, the cheques do not bear that relationship to the pay lists of steamers and to
bills for goods which I think they ought. With regard to the crews ot the Dominion
steamers, I find that advances for their salaries are made, and sometimes in the name
of the person who countersigns the cheques.
I should prefer to have payments for the services of those employed on the
Dominion steamers, who are paid through your Quebec agent, made as they are under
similar circumstances by your other agents, at the end of each months service for the
month's pay, in the name of the official who is to disburse the money. Send, if you
can do so conveniently, any changes which have been made by Departmental
order in the lighthouse keepers of the Dominion, both as to the persons and salaries.

salaries of the light-keepers in the Provinces named. This check is deposited to the
credit of the agents of the Department with the Bank of Montreal, and their indivi-
dual checks issued for payment of the salaries referred to. I have to request that
you will inform me whether this mode of payment meets with your approval, or if
you require the Auditor to countersign every check. If so, it would be advisable that
the requisite instructions for this purpose be given by you to the auditors at St. John

Geological Survey of Canada,
Montreal, 16th October, 1879.
Sir, — I am desired by the director to inform you in reply to your letter of the
14th instant, that on the 30th June last, the amount of outstanding payments due by
the Geological Survey for contingencies of 1878-79 exceeded the balance of $421.07,
in his hards at that date. By referring to the accounts rendered 30th June last you
will observe that the balance due the Burland-I^esbarats Company alone was $443.60.
This balance has since been paid, and will be accounted for in the statements for the
current year.
Under the circumstrnces, Mr. Selwyn thinks that the regulation referred to in
your letter cannot be considered applicable in this instance.
The four cents which you allude to as occurring in the statement of warrants, is
owing to an error by the Bank of Montreal in crediting warrant of 22nd June, 1878,
$1,004 70, which should have been $1,004.74, difference of four cents. This difference
was afterwards credited to the survey account by the Bank of Montreal, in August.
I have the honor to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
(Signed) G. E. GEANT.

Ottawa, 15th October, 1879.
Sir, — In addition to the remarks in my letter of yesterday, I have to make the
following suggestions with reference to your accounts: —
Eeceipts from all sources should be placed to the credit of the Eeceiver-General.
The vote of Parliament is for the entire expenditure.
You will issue cheques only against your letters of credit for expenditure of
every kind, except the pay list salaries, which the bank has been instructed to pay.
The yearly statement should represent exactly the different monthly statements,
not merely as to the gross amount, but the details.
E.G. — There are various payments for contingencies to Mr. McFarren of $60
each in the monthly statements, which do not appear on the yearly statoment, you
making instead charges of the amounts expended from one settlement with him to
another.
191
The same is the case with the accounts of the various persons who make explora-
tions.
Please explain the nature of the settlement with Burland-Desbarats & Co., of
their account amounting to $1 ,643.60, on which there were payments amounting to, as
it appears, $1,200.
Advances made in one year should be charged against that year, even when the
work is to be done in the next, or settled for then, and the balances should only
appear in the next accounts. The vouchors which you sent in should, of course,
explain the whole transactions as at present.
I have the honor to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,

Sir, — I have the honor to return herewith the statement of receipts and expen-

Under the Statutes 38 Vic, Chap. 20, Sec. 23, Clause 5, and 40 Vic, Chap. 42,

expenses of this office, amounts in proportion to the premiums received by each in
the previous year; but such amounts are not to exceed, for the Fire and Inland
Marine Companies, $8,000. The amount in each year is collected by me as instructed
by the Minister of Finance. For the year ending 31st March, 1878, this amount was
fixed at about 75 per cent of the total expenses of the office for that year, including
the salary of the Superintendent of Insurance.

Note. — The expenditure in British Columbia generally, came to within $29.44
•f the amount estimated for, viz.: $62,928.00; it is, however, impossible to give pre-
cise reasous for the over or under expenditure in the several items. The expendi-
ture was conducted, in British Columbia by the Superintendents, who acted, no doubt,
to the best of their ability in each particular case.
Memorandum on the above note by the Auditor- General.
It will be noted that, although the $12,000 item was a separate vote from that
which covered the anticipated expenditure on the Victoria and on the Fraser Superin-
tendency, the Department of the Interior treated erroneously the three accounts^as
different subdivisions of the same vote.

The annuities actually paid fell below the original
estimate, being only $29,915 00
but 1,138 Indians claimed and received arrears for
1874-5-6.7, amounting to 9,650 00
$39,565 00
Treaty No. 6.
In this, as in the case of Treaty No. 4, the original estimate
was somewhat in excess of the sum required for the
payment of annuities, which amounted to $35,410 00
but arrears were paid to 2,232 Indians who were absent
from the payments of 1876 and 1877'; those arrears
amounted to , 1 22,5S5 00
$57,995 00

To the $38,000 estimated for as above was added a supplemental sum of $20,000
(See Schedule " A." of the last Supply Bill), granted for " further expenditure for
implements, cattle, etc., under Treaties 4, 6, 7." It was, however, found that the
whole of that sum could be profitably expended for the Indians under Treaty 6, who
were reported to be in a condition to avail thomselvos of Treaty obligations in the
matter of being supplied with implements of husbandry and seed. The sum of
$555 was expended in paying for the instruction of Indians of Treaty No. 6, and of
the whole vote of $58,000, there remains unexpended $402.17.

daring seed time ; the hist to provide food for starving Indians; tho whole vote
being thus raised to $40,000, of which about $15,209.35 was expended in providing
food for destitute and starving Indians, and $.£8,434.06 in purchasing provisions to be
used during Treaty payments; for the Sioux and seed time, leaving unoxponded of the

was entrusted the expenditure of $1,000 (part of which was for the Sioux), not hav-
ing reached this Department in time to be included in the published statement, and,
as it was believed that the accountable cash given to Agent McDonald would be spent

The only reason which can bo assigned for the small expenditure for Treaties 4
and 6 is the difficulty experienced in getting in the School Returns on which the
salaries are paid, owing, it is presumed, to the remote localities in which the schools
are established. No school system has yet been commenced in Treaty No. 7.

Departmknt of thb Interior,
]STorth-West Mounted Police Branch,
Ottawa, 29th January, 1880.
SlB, — J have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 26th
inst., transmitting a comparative statement of the appropriation and expenditure in
connection with the North-West Mounted Police service for the year ended 30th
June, 1879, and requesting explanation as to the cause of the surplus or deficit upon
each Bub-head.
The sub-division for the pay of the force and extra pay to farmers and artizans,
shows an expenditure of $225.51 less than the appropriation.
The subdivision for rations shows an expenditure of $203.11 less than the
appropriation.
The sub-division for fuel and light shows an expenditure of $94.22 less than the
appropriation.
The sub division for clothing shows an expenditure of $385.6*7 less than the
appropriation.
The sub-division for miscellaneous stores shows an expenditure of $593.92 less
than i lie appropriation.
The sub-division for hooks and stationery shows an expenditure of $83.68 less
than the appropriation.
These small unexpended balances, I presume, do not require explanation, as in a
service such as the North- West Mounted Police it is impossible to estimate exactly
the requirements of the force twelve months in advance.
The sub-division for forage shows an expenditure less than the appropriation of
$4,446.25. This was the result of a reduction in the prices of oats and hay as com-
pared with previous years.
The sub-division for contingencies shows an expenditure less than the appropria-
tion of $5,802.01. A large sum has always been placed in the estimates of the
Mounted Police for contingencies, but when possible the amounts paid from that sub-
division of the appropriation have been charged to the classification to which they
properly belong, the result of this being that in the estimates for the present fiscal
year the sum of only $3,000 has been asked for contingencies instead of $9,000 as in
previous years.
The comparative statement shows an excess of the expenditure over the appro-
priation in three sub-divisions, viz.: repairs, renewals, replacement of horses, arms
and ammunition, $2,352.95 ; medicines and medical comforts, $97.18; transport and
freight charges, guides, teamsters and laborers, $1,208.01.
These items of over expenditure were caused partly by the charging thereto of
items paid from the unexpended balance of contingencies, and partly by the require-
ments of the service unforeseen when the estimates were prepared.
I have the honor to be,
Sir,
Your obedient servant,
FRED. WHITE,

a. As neither the extent nor the circulation of the Canada Gazette can be fore-
seen, the estimate can only be approximate.
b. This grant was paid over to the Accountant of the House of Commons, and
no statement of expenditure, nor vouchers, have been furnished by him.
.Note by the Commissioner of Customs.
c. The practice has heretofore been to charge against this Vote, not only the
Commutation Allowances in lieu of return duties, but all refunds to the Army and
Navy as well. In this year's account only the Commutation Allowances have been
so charged, while all refunds have gone to account of Customs Eeturned Duties.

Memo. Department of the Interior,
Ottawa, 16th January, 1880.
In reply to the Auditor-General's enquiry, why certain moneys, part of the
appropriations of this Department for Government of the North- West Territories,
Government of the District of Keewatin, and expenditure upon Mounted Police
Barracks, remained unexpended at the close of the last financial year, the undersigned
begs to remark : —
1. With regard to the balance remaining on account of Government of the North-
West, there were certain services estimated for, but for which no expenditure was
incurred : as, for instance, aid to schools and improvement of roads, and bridges and
ferries.
2. The award of the Arbitrators, in the matter of the Western Boundary of the
Province of Ontario, affecting, as it did, really all that portion of Keewatin in which
the expenditures estimated for under that head were required, prevented such ex-
penditure from being made for the time ; and the confirmation of the decision of the
Arbitrators is still pending.
3. The sum of $15,000 was estimated for to build Mounted Police Barracks, and
$691.99 is simply the unexpended balaace of that sum, which was not required.
(Signed) J. S. DENNIS,
Deputy of the Minister of the Interior.
h. This excess was authorized by Order-in-Council of 11th July, and should be>
charged to Unforeseen Expenses.

EEMAEKS.
In presenting the foregoing Summary Statement of Customs outside expendi-
ture compared with the appropriations for same, I have the honour to state that as
the difference between the two is so small, only amounting to about one half of one
per cent., it would bo very difficult to point out in detail wherein the precise varia-
tions occurred, or the causes therefor. As a general explanation, it may be said that
the changes in the tariff made during the year necessitated a considerably increased
expenditure, for the purpose of providing the various ports with appliances for the
proper carrying out of its provisions, and with new books, forms, blanks, etc., of an
unknown value at the time of the supplementary vote, which included a probable
approximate amount, for that purpose was asked for, and which, in the aggregate,
has exceeded the expectation.
On the other hand, savings have been effected at various ports not then deemed
certain.
The variations have, to a great extent, occurred at the larger ports, where, in
point of fact, the expenditure necessarily fluctuates according to ever occurring exigen-
cies that cannot be wholly guarded against in advance, depending in a great
measure on the length of the season of open navigatien and on the volume of trade.
At Montreal and Quebec, savings have been effected, while at Halifax and
St. John there has been an increase, to some extent due to the winter traffic via
Halifax.
In the North- West Territories, the expenditure is a percentage on the collections,
and collections having been greater than anticipated, the expenditure, in proportion,
has exceeded the estimates. From the more distant provinces vouchers are some-
times late in arriving, and are consequently not charged in the accounts of the year
in which the expenditure may have been made.
There does not appear to be any exceptional items of variation during the year j
only such as are liable to occur any year, notwithstanding the greatest care in prepar-
ing the estimates and in controlling the expenditure.
J. JOHNSON.
Commissioner.
Customs Department,
Ottawa, 9th January, 1880.

Copy Inland Eevenue Department,
Ottawa, 8th December, 18*79.
Sir, — In reply to your request to be informed as to the causes affecting the
discrepancy between the expenditure of this Department in its various services and
the amount estimated therefor, I have the honour to state that the estimates for
contingencies are made en bloc lor each branch of the service, based, of course, upon
details furnished by past experience, and increased or decreased as the Department
has reason to believe such increased or decreased expenditure is likely to be demanded
by the anticipated exigencies of the service.
It has been the constant aim of the Department: 1st. To limit its demands upon
the Treasury within its anticipated actual requirements; and 2nd. To keep its actual
expenditure within the sum voted by Parliament.
The only reason that can be assigned for the one not having overtaken the other
is, that the Department has exercised great vigilence in the direction of restraining
any expenditure on the part of its officials which was not considered essential.
There are but two services admitting of explanation on more specific grounds
than the foregoing, viz. : " Cullers" and " Weights and Measures."
The discrepancy in the former is due to the great falling off in the quantity of
lumber finding its way to Quebec ; partly on account of the recent depression in the
lumber trade, and partly owing to a change in its character.
That under the second head arises from the fact that when the present Govern-
ment acceded to office, the Weights and Measures Act was not working in a manner
that was deemed satisfactory, and pending radical legislative changes, many Deputy
Inspectors were instructed to discontinue their inspection, or to limit them within
very restricted areas; by which cause a considerable sum, which would otherwise
have been required, was saved.
Trusting these explanations may meet your requirements,
I have the honor to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
(Signed ) E. MIALL, Jr.
Assistant Commissioner*

Note by Auditor-General.
The appropriation was overdrawn through the charges being in the first instance entered under
the mode of keeping the Intercolonial Railway account, in a suspense account. The appropriations
were only charged as the amounts covered by the several subheads were distributed, which took place
from two to four months after the expenditure took place. Should the same manner of distributing
be continued the intention of Parliament can only be secured by charging the suspense account against
the general appropriation in the first instance.

Department of the Interior,
Indian Lands Branch,
Ottawa, 27th Jan., 1880.
Sir, — In the absence of the Deputy Minister of the Interior, I have the honor to
reply to your letter of the 22nd inst., as follows : —
a. The item of $12,500 was added to the grant of $80,000 for the year by a
supplementary estimate to make provision for township surveys on the Saskatchewan.
During the year it was found expedient to make more surveys on the Saskatchewan
and fewer in Manitoba.
b. The amount required for rent and stationery of three new offices was a
contingency which could not exactly be estimated.
c. In Mr. Codd's case, it was considered that during the extra work thrown upon
him of making the allotment of Half-Breed lands, the $400 in question should be
-allowed as a compensation.
I have the honor to be, Sir,
Your obedient servant,
(Signed) LINDSAY EUSSELL,
Surveyor General,
Note by the Auditor- General.
e. It seems irregular to pay any allowance by Departmental order in addition to
the salary fixed by the Governor in Council.

31st Vio., cap. :;, r ), section 13 provides that the Deputies of tlic several Depart-
ments shall estimate tho probable quantity, quality and variety of articles, commonly
known as .stationery, for the thon ensuing financial year ; section 14 provides that a
requisite sum therefor shall bo placed in the estimates as a separate item, under tho
bead of Civil Government, an apportionment being made by Governor in Council,
which may bo increased or varied from time to time, so that tho whole sum voted
by Parliament in any year, together with the value of stock on hand, bo not
exceeded.
This vote, although appearing in the Supply Bill as voted for stationery for the
Stationery OiHco, does not cover either the stationery purchased or that distributed
during tho year.
The Stationery Oflice was stocked, when started, under a vote of $20,000. The
issues made to tho different Departments were charged to their several contingencies,
or other services, and credited to the Stationery Office. The credit entries have been
taken as authority for purchases to an equal amount to supplement tho stationery
stock, and as the stock at the end of each financial year does not exceed in value the
amount at the beginning, the vote is not drawn upon for stationery purposes.
I suggest the advisibility of voting separately, under the head Miscellaneous,
whatever sum may be thought necessary to keep up the stationery stock, as the vote
appears misleading in its present place, the inference being that the stationery pur-
chased is covered by the vote.

The difference between the sum paid — $313.04, as per Public Accounts (page
xjart 2), in the Laprairie election, and the amount allowed — $324.04, as shewn at
: 85, arises from the fact that the sum of $11 was paid after the close of the
1 year ending June 30th, 18*76. That sum will appear in the Public Accounts
179-80.
